The game was another solid match from end to end as Team Mexico was trying to end a five straight World Cup losses in the Round of 16. The Dutch were trying to move on as they know the some of the Powerhouses are out in England and and defending World Cup Champion Spain.

It was right after intermission when Giovani Dos Santos in the 46th minute strikes to give Mexico a 1-0 lead. That lead would hold up as the Heat was a factor moving from a staring Temperature of 88 Degrees to the mid 90s by game end. As the end was near the Flying Dutchmen never lost sight of the fact the game isn't over until the whistles blow and the Time is stopped. Having said that it was a corner kick by the Dutch and ricochet off a Dutch Player to the top of the Box right to Wesley Sneijder as he kicks a rocket in the left side of the net to tie the score in the88th minute. Just like that the whole,game changed as Mexico was in shock.

As we get six minute of Stoppage Time at the game clock hit 90 minute it was in the 93rd minute (or 3rd minute of Stoppage time) that Dutch Striker Arjen Robben making a move around the box "Sold" a Trip and the Mexican Defender gets a Yellow Card and there we have ..."Penalty Kick" to decide who moves on to the Round of 8.  Dutch Striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar hits the PK as the Dutch go onto win 2-1 in dramatic fashion as its "Heartbreak" again for Team Mexico as now its six straight Round of 16 Losses in the World Cup. Mexico's Goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa was straight butta for 87 minutes as he was easily the Player of the Game.

The Dutch now await the winner of Costa Rica and Greece as FIFA needs to start giving Red cards for the Embellishments that are taking away from the game.

360 Degrees....Did you know the World's largest Crocodiles are in Costa Rica?
