In what only can be classified as an upset, World Cup favorite Brazil lost tonight to the Netherlands 2-1, and saw its dream of another title end.
A perennial favorite, Brazil lost in the round of eight to a Holland team which was down 1-0 at half-time.

However, that quickly changed in the second half, as a Brazilian mistake allowed the European team an equalizer, followed shortly by the goal that would give the Netherlands a lead that they would never relinquish.

Just 10 minutes into the game, Robinho scored the opening goal to put the Brazilian side up for the rest of the half. A scant 8 minutes after the second half got under way, however, an own goal by Felipe Melo allowed the Dutch side to tie the scoreboard. The score would remain tied for another 15 minutes until Sneijder would score off a corner kick for the Clockwork Orange and give the game its final margin.
