1. That cringeworthy opening ceremony when people said Pitbull looked more like an "Ah Pek" than a superstar
2. That Robin Van Persie goal that sparked a trend called "Persie-ing". The legend of the "Flying Dutchman" is true!
3. The first time the vanishing spray was used and everyone was like "oooh shaving cream?"
4. Luis Suarez and his bite, which turned him into an Internet meme. No more bites! As FIFA banned him for 4 months
5. Tim Cahill's and James Rodriguez's wonder goals against the Netherlands and Uruguay. So so so 'cantik'
6. Dance, dance, and more dance as football celebrations features flair. The 'zapin' should be in there too
7. Number seven is for that 7-1 score. That's right, the game everyone has been talking about. Brazil badly got beaten by the Germans. Wunderbar!
8. Brilliant goalkeeping, from Tim Howard, to Guillermo Ochoa. They should be your banks, because they help you save.
9. Neymar and his heartbreaking injury that ruled him out for the rest of the World Cup. He did pretty good before that though, pushing and inspiring his team forward.
10. Miroslav Klose and his goals that makes him the highest all-time World Cup goalscorer. A legend and a player that will be missed come the next World Cup.
11. Netherland's coach Louis Van Gaal decision to substitute the main goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen for Tim Krul for the penalty shooutout. It worked.
12. That Malaysian flag that made it in the World Cup and was watched by millions across the world, even for just a few seconds.
13. Mexico's manager and his over the top reactions that makes him well-liked. He even got turned into a superhero on the Internet!
14. When one of our ministers hailed Hitler when Germany beat Brazil. This made international news! LONG LIVE COMEDY!
15. What's a little Malaysian World Cup gaffe without one from Singapore? This advertisement sums it all
