    I have money on Argentina, but I sort of hate them a bit. And I sort of hate Arjen Robben, but I also love him a little bit too.

    I'm very conflicted, basically.

    She kind of reminds me of a young Cindy Wilson, B52's singer/shouter.

    Netherlands have the unenviable record of playing in more finals than anyone else without actually winning the World Cup. For that reason alone, I'd like them to win tonight, and on Sunday, despite Meinheer Robben's arsishness.

    They were very respectful to the German fans outside the Estádio Mineirão last night, so no.

    Ask yourself how England fans would have reacted afterwards to losing to Germany 7-1 say at Wembley or Old Trafford in a World cup semi final.

    Brasil has had awful problems with hooligans at club level, but when the national team plays they seem to forget all that.

    So say, if Flamengo beat Fluminense (or Fla Flu as it's known the biggest derby in Brasil) 7-1 it would be a horror show.

    Teams:

    Netherlands: Cillessen, Vlaar, De Vrij, Martins Indi, Blind, De Jong, Sneijder, Kuyt, Wijnaldum, Robben, Van Persie (c)

    Argentina: Romero, Zabaleta, Garay, DeMichelis, Rojo, Biglia, Mascherano, Perez, Lavezzi, Messi (c), Higuain



    Van Persie fit enough to start, with De Jong back in for the Dutch.

    Di Maria and Aguero not fit for Argentina.

    Good spot Fran. They are indeed. Now, who can spot the rest of his body?

    Yeah, I'd not mind if they win - I predicted them to.

    I'd quite like Koeman's boys to win their first though.

    The dutch for me. Think they have played well in this tournament, and Argentina have been extremely disappointing. That being said, they are in the Semi-Finals regardless.

    This looks like a competitive game, much more than last night.
