It was a tight match today but the Netherlands prevailed over Uruguay 3-2. I was at work, but was able to follow along via the handy live blog at National Post. The Dutch scored early on but then lost their lead and it was 1-1 for a while. At 70-something minutes, the Dutch pulled ahead again, but it was still a narrow win, as the Uruguay team (props to you, Uruguay!) fought to literally the last minutes.
So now, the Netherlands are through to the final game! They must stay focused and fight for the Cup! Who will my flying Dutchmen face next Sunday? The match for their contender will be battled out tomorrow between Germany and Spain. I'd say that Germany is most likely to be the winner, but this whole tournament has been so unpredictable that it's really anybody's game to win.

Thanks again for the WC update!
And I found your comment on my blog, no thanks to blogger, as it showed zero comments. Annoying! Hopefully this one doesn't get lost in it all.
You are getting good at this! : ) Deb the sports reporter.
GERMANY!!! :o)
Debbie, maybe being a "world football commentator" would be a good option for my next career. Sounds like fun!
