There's absolutely no way Costa Rica can survive another 30 minutes.

True. But they need only survive another 20

No even gonna acknowledge you as you are still pretending that Robben admitted to diving for the penalty which is not true and you know it.

Pretty weak in the end though.

No no no. I never once said that he dived for the penalty, I always said that there was contact even if it was minimal.

I said, and he admits it, that he dived in the 1st half. I said he should have been punished for it by FIFA.

If this goes to penalties, I think CRC has a better chance of winning. The Dutch better not let that happen

Im fully expecting a Dutch goal before time.

If CR can also score, I doubt it.

In a world where not even a knee to break the spine draws a punishment, what Robben did is not even in the scope of post match punishment.

FIFA are looking at Zuniga's "tackle", and it sure as hell does deserve some punishment.

Even then, the cases are different because Robben admits to actually cheating. This is the thing. Robben fully admits that he took a dive.
