Robinho celebrate by kneeling and thanking the good Lord for this goal...... wow.. great one guys..... players now running to congratulate Robnho and Arjen Robben not happy at all with this early goal. It is the 4th goal from Robinho in this World Cup equal to Argentina forward Higuain.Netherlands 0 - 1 Brazil

Julio Cesar cannot believe it.... and you bet neither the millions of Brazil fans.... Mammaaaa miaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Netherlands 1 - 1 Brazil
First substitution for Brazil in the 62nd minute. Michel Bastos out, Gilberto Melo in. This is more like a prevention because Bastos already with a yellow card and with this tough game risking to get another one and be sent off... so better change him now...
Netherlands after this equalizer result gaining confidence and Brazil losing concentration.... Netherlands pressing.....
