On paper ,Holland has one heck of a team but on the field they just suck ,they couldnt beat Belgium and Brazil ,and they havent won in many games .Ok so maybe Brazil is a little to tough for Holland ,but england tied them so why couldnt holland at least tie against Brazil?If im not mistaken ,Kluivert will be holland one of their starting forwards,well he is really overrated ,he hnasnt had a good season since those days that he was playing for Milan .The DeBoer brothers are getting older ,Numan?Who the hell is that ?Theonly advantage that holland has is the fact that they are playing at home ,but i wouldnt be surprised if they dont go far .

Yes ,the game USA vs Brazil was a close one,but remember ,Brazil had one less player ,remember when Leonardo knoced Tab Ramos in the head and got a red card .If Leonardo did not do that ,Brazil would of probably destroyed USA ,considering that the winning goal came after Leonardo's red card .

It's very simple, although it's izi for me 2 say as a dutchmen, but Holland lost only 3 games in their last 16 matches... including 3x brazil, germany, argentina, chechz rep., and many more great opponents... Ok, so we only won 3.... sow 3 won, lost 3, and 10 ties... Whahaha... and keeping in mind, that Holland has lost 5 times a penalty shootout in a big tournament and won zero... So I think we get to the semi-final... Italy, spain or england will win the title..

Indeed, the dutch team is strongly overrated. but the fact that they are playing at home gives them a big advantage. In wc 94 the match between USA and brazil was pretty close,remember?
