FIFA World Cup Brazil 2014

Can they douse the flames in time?

Reminds of the European Championships 2 years ago. After a good worldcup in South Africa the Netherlands didn't suvive the first round...

Five champions, with Spain, eliminated in the first round.
Italy (twice, in 1950 and 2010), Brazil (1966) and France (2002) fell in the first phase after defending title. Spain is the first to do it before the third game.-
 
Not a Soccer fan by any means but at least us Aussies gave the Dutch a run for their money. All coverage here is calling the game 'Gutsy.'

Calling football socce is like swearing in church.

I think Australia played very well. According to Dutch press, the Netherlands played bad, but I think Australia played vey well. Especially in the first half they were masters on the pitch.
