Nuremburg , 26th June

[Roberto]

Best Match up of the round of 16. I hope its better than the euro 2004 semi final.

[cozzi]

Easy win here for Portugal. Holland are the most boring team in this WC and there team is make up of villans that i hate eg robben, van nistleroy, van persie etc. I hope the great Portugal team puts this boring team where they belong. Back of there studid plane back to Holland

I think Holland has a good change, there playing good football, its not good football to watch at, but there's quality, they only lost 1 match out of 24 with Marco van Basten !

[Hammoudi]

Hmm, I don't think Holland are boring whatsoever. In fact, I like their tactical approach to games.

They may not be the flashy Holland of the past, but they are much more solid and robust this time around.

[Frisko]

I agree with cozzi, Holland are boring and way overrated, I think Luis&Co should dispose of them. It will teach that idiot Van Basten to leave Seedorf at home.

[Pi]

This can be a great game between 2 good teams that seem very well matched. Portugal and Holland don't lose any game (non friendly) since the Euro 2004, I think this says much about both teams, this 2 teams are used to win, let's see who can remain invincible.

I expect both teams to produce an attacking football, Portugal will probably try to surprise Holland's defence with some quick counters. Also the defence seems to be the weaker link on both teams, something that the coaches must correct.

Good post man...excellent and spot on!!! This team is the most untalented Dutch team ever, but their tactical brilliance and unity make them hard to beat.

It's definetly the best match of the last 16 and it will be a close game.

Let's wait and see, Holland still needs to get at his best level, i'am sure they will do better from now on.
The attack scares with Robben, Vaart, Van Persie and RVN or Kuijt

Along with the ghana brazil and france spain this is going to be the best match of 1/8, yes, the other ones are very clear and we know what will happen.

Van Perise, RVN and Kuiijt are all but scary, sorry...

[Gismo]

Boy, Cristiano Ronaldo is hot. If I was a woman I'd seduce him in a heartbeat!

[minterke]

lol is that Tim's dirty work again?

I hope Netherlands make minced meat out of this overrated Portugal team.

[Pajo]

This is the best match in 1/8, of course together with Spain-France. And Portugal will win, closely, but will win. I hope it will be on penalties, I love penalties

[Hammoudi]

I don't know how the Netherlands are viewed as boring!

Maybe the YouTube fan and fans like CR9_King_of_stepovers_90 think so, but a soccer purist would love their approach to games.

[Handoyo]

Forca Portugal.

[J zanetti]

Forza any of the 2 who is more capable or perhaps suited to kick the english back to their island. That is if they were to adavance today!

[Handoyo]

Lol. For me, it's forza to any who brings me money.

[minterke]

I'd love to see a repeat of England-Portugal back in 2004 (A.Cole vs. CR17). That was one of the games of the tournament.
