    The Dutch Goalie Is a BEAST

    Gotta love his cockiness talkin shit to Costa Rican players before they kick in the shootout. Guy is like 6 foot 7 and stops everything.

    best ive seen anyway


    goalkeepers generally choose where to dive at random during a penalty kick and hope to get lucky, this guy is so fast he can actually wait to see where the ball is going before diving, so he always dives on the right side which makes it very likely that he'll make a save

    Typical American soccer know-how. The guy keeps for Newcastle and is shit. Tall GK jumping to the left all the time - odds say he has a good chance to make a couple of saves.
    Leave it to Bryan Ruiz to miss - he was shit in Fulham and was shit all game for CR.

    On the bright side - CR didn't win, which would've been declared a national holiday for weeks and we wouldn't be able to get a dime from the CR sportsbooks for months

    Everyone missing the point here. He saved the pks because Costa Rica was practicing all week for the starting goalie so the Dutch coach surprised them. It's all psychological.

    Yes, the element of surprise was a big part. Definitely effects mental state of pentaly taker which already is a high pressure situation anyway. Also, quite simply Cillesen is smaller than Krul...Krul is a few inches taller and thicker so a bigger presence in goal. Cillesen is also a lot less experienced...he only jus became ajax first team GK last season so would of been a a lot of pressure for him

    The taunting did get in their heads

    I thought the Costa Rican players were somewhat confused by the taunting

    The dutch goalkeepers always do this. And the referee never does anything about it.

    Just watch Van Breukelen at the 0:50 mark and again at the 2min mark.

    They need to stop goalies like Nava lying around on the ground purposely inorder to try and kill time.

    Van Gaal, Rule 1: Use all your changes in 120 min game. People get tired, they are not robots.

    that's where costa rica's inexperience really showed,

    they've never been on the big stage while krul is an animal monster,

    he guessed every shot correctly too.

    This has always been Krul's game and almost all of the tall goalies.

    It's not the keeper that won it for the flopping Dutch, it was the CR players not knowing the first rule of penalties against tall goal keepers - ALWAYS SHOOT IN THE MIDDLE!

    Anyhow, pissed off because now I have to watch fuckin Robin and van Persei diving all through another game. People from Holland should be ashamed of themselves for cheering the biggest dolphins in soccer!
