Been very busy so haven't written about the semi finals up till now...I'm sure you watched them anway but here's a quick summary in case you have no life...
Holland march on
The Dutch are looking good to win their first ever World Cup. The best country never to win the tournament went ahead with a 30 yard stunner from Giovanni Van Bronckhorst but were pegged back when Forlan's strike wasn't stopped by the Dutch keeper. The Uruguays were without Suarez after he cheated Ghana out of the Semi Final spot and were as good as out when Holland scored twice in 3 minutes. First Sneijder's shot took a deflection to take the lead for Holland before Robben's accurate header guarenteed their place in the Final
Puyol heads Spain into the final
Puyol heads Spain into the final
Carlos Puyol headed Spain into the final of the World Cup 17 minutes from the end to put Germany out. Germany were very defensive throughout realising Spain's presence when passing the ball along the floor and came close on several counter attacks. In a game where Torres only played a brief camio at the end, Spain's defence was too resiliant and it took a defender to come up with the winner which means they play Holland in the final on Sunday
