Search web search ADVERTISEMENT Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Top Stories Most Popular Photos Sitemap Brazil, Dutch eye World Cup quarter-finals place AFP - Tuesday, June 29 Send IM Story Print Brazil, Dutch eye World Cup quarter-finals place JOHANNESBURG (AFP) - – Brazil and The Netherlands eyed World Cup quarter-finals places on Monday as the English media told coach Fabio Capello to quit after a humiliating exit. Midfield maestro Kaka is available after a one-match ban for the Brazilians as they continue their quest for a record sixth title with a South American showdown against Chile at Ellis Park here. Slovakia coach Vladimir Weiss has admitted his heroes will have to play even better than when dumping defending champions Italy out of the tournament in the first round to eliminate the classy Dutch in Durban. The four countries are hoping to join Uruguay, Ghana, Germany and Argentina in the quarter-finals this weekend with the last two second-round games set for Tuesday with giantkillers Japan among those in action. England, third favourites with the bookmakers behind Spain and Brazil, headed home after a humiliating 4-1 loss to Germany in a Bloemfontein game overshadowed by a legitimate Frank Lampard goal the referee never saw. "You let your country down" screamed the headline that filled most of the front page in the mass-circulation Sun after England suffered a record World Cup loss. "We gave football to the world. Yet since 1966, the world has stubbornly refused to give it back," said the tabloid referring to the one year that England conquered the world. The Daily Mail was no kinder to the Three Lions, who never roared with draws against the United States and Algeria followed by a limp win over Slovenia that took them through as group runners-up. "England coach Fabio Capello and his team of self-regarding flops have presided over a national embarrassment, one of the most comprehensive humiliations in our sporting history." The Times was equally unhappy: "England played three calamitous matches out of four, failed to score goals and defended like fools, and that is all the responsibility of Capello." While English football went into collective mourning, German newspapers celebrated a third triumph for the country in five World Cup clashes with the old enemy. "Thank you football God," said biggest national daily Bild. "After 44 years the Wembley goal is finally balanced out. Now the English know how we have felt the whole time." Geoff Hurst scored a controversial third goal in the 1966 final as England went on to triumph 4-2 after extra time at Wembley with the Germans adamant the ball never crossed the goal-line. Brazil walloped Chile 4-1 at the same stage of the competition 12 years ago in France and although the gap may be narrower, the Samba Boys still look too good for workmanlike opponents. Chile are the 'busy bees' of the tournament and will try to upset the Brazilians by harassing defenders used to having time and space as they consider attacking options. Slovakia striker Robert Vittek poses the biggest threat to a Dutch side seeking to go all the way after the country lost finals to 1974 hosts West Germany and 1978 hosts Argentina. Netherlands have always had the stars, but under low profile coach Bert van Marwijk there is also a steely edge and unity which has made the class of 2010 dark horses for the title.
