    Jack of all trades:, external I don't think its the end for Spain, it is for Xavi, Iniesta & Xabi, but their 2nd team is good enough to win the Euro2016.

    Jake Hutchinson:, external Love seeing what it means to David Villa. What an incredible international career and player.

    Dr Holmes:, external The way Brazilians have played so far Chile shouldn't be worried. The Dutch were the real test after what they did to Spain!

    Eyobel Gomini:, external Will never understand how Franck Ribery was competing for the Ballon d'Or when you have Arjen Robben at Bayern Munich! Pure Class!

    Like Mike Atherton at Lord's in 1993, we are stranded on 99.

    That's 99 goals for the tournament so far, with 100 sure to come in the night's Group A fixtures.

    Surely?

    "Australia looked like they were trying to play with high energy levels but after Spain went 1-0 up it was like a friendly match and they sort of petered out. I'm glad it stayed at 3-0 because it could have been four, five or six and that would not have reflected just how well Australia played in this tournament.

    "I thought they were excellent in periods in the first game against Chile and against Netherlands too. They could have been 3-2 up on Netherlands and had them rattled but went down due to goalkeeper Mat Ryan, who is an excellent young goalkeeper but made a mistake in that game."

    I've yet to find find out who the last Norwich man to score at a World Cup was - but we think that the last Canary to play in a World Cup before this one was Efan Ekoku in 1994.

  16. The Last 16published at 19:00 British Summer Time 23 June 2014

    So who has so far booked their place in the last 16?

    Netherlands and Chile are joined by Colombia, Costa Rica, Argentina and Belgium, with the final 10 places still all up for grabs...

    Spain have hit form at the wrong time.

    That's the first time in 12 World Cup matches that Spain have scored three goals in a game, as they registered three goals from just four shots on target.

    "I tip my hat to Louis van Gaal today, he got his tactics spot on and did not allow Chile to press. Netherlands played disciplined, defensive football and relied on the quality of Arjen Robben and Memphis Depay, who made a huge difference in the second half.

    "Chile will have to pick themselves up, they tried to force the game but looked a bit flat. But I think that has more to do with the way Netherlands set up than their own problems."

    mwatekowa:, external That counter-attack was devastating from the Dutch! Quality!!

    AKarim:, external Like the look of this Dutch side. Winning pretty, and now winning ugly. Deadly combination.

  20. GROUP Bpublished at 18:54 British Summer Time 23 June 2014

    Group B

    The Dutch take nine points then, jut as they did four years ago. They got all the way to the final then - what price a repeat?

    Chile will play the winners of Group A in the next phase - potentially Brazil.
