As an Argentinean, I think Uruguay is closer to our hearts, being our Rioplatense brothers.
A little bit more on that camaraderie between Argentina and Uruguay:

Apparently there's more to Maradona than meets the eye...

Indeed there is, and Diego Forlan is a special person too. I wish him and his team luck this evening, but whatever happens today or next weekend the Uruguayan team has given their country great joy.

Did you hear the "famous" german polyp (the only one who guessed all the results so far for what I know) said that Spain will win against Germany ?

Jjjjjeeezus!
Unlike England or Argentina, Spain does have middle field. And world's best goalkeeper.

FYI, he was the best goalkeeper. Spain hasn't had any serious challenge throughout the cup. I don't care how much EURO they worth individually. You need to be able to play as a team.
It would be a close match but as far as status showing through this cup, Germany has the slight edge.

I DID say not to underestimate Uruguay! It was beautiful goal of van Bronckhorst, but Forlan's was nice too!

Who of you knew that Forlan was a talent in tennis when his sister had an accident and then he left tennis and promised his father he would have become a football star to find the money to cure her ?
Really a nice one.
Really a nice one.

Referee ruined it. The 2nd goal was definitely offside. Robben is still the diving queen.

mmm... passive offside, maybe ?

I don’t think it touched the player so if that is the case it wasn’t offside.

Pretty good match to watch and pretty good football played tonight. By both teams! I don't know if a slobber-knocker is good or bad, but I liked it better than most other matches of Holland in the tournament.

The player was in the offside position and he attempted to chase the ball. He also blocked the view of the goalkeeper. All in count, that's 100% offside.
