That was one of the sickest goals I've seen in a long time. Forlan is the shizz!

Long as it's a clean win, and not decided on penalties, I'll be happy. I'd hoped that a new country would win, and my wish will come true.
Though because of the First Canadian Army liberating the Netherlands in 1945, many Canadians have a soft spot for that country.

Well, so far it's been a rather slow and often disrupted game.
Typical final game to be honest, they're rarely a pleasure to watch.

Last thoughts on first half:
kinda slow.
plenty o fouls, and hard fouls at that.
fair, or equal amounts on either side of fouls.
No breaks!!!!
Need more breaks!!!!!
every pass to Robben means two-man coverage, i.e. stymied.
and Spain has not had a real chance to feed Villa.
On the replay, I see that Ramos had chances...
and the boot to the chest.. that was just straight up bad joojoo
POO Edit: its almost as if the defense of each team has made it impossible for the game to be played with any flow..

Kinda what I expected - Dutch are lucky to still be in it
and even luckier to still have 11 on the pitch. Howard Webb
has been very considerate - what the hell was de Jong thinking?
Van Persie doesn't belong out there - bring on Elie.
Is Puyol the best?

He's been the best guy on the pitch so far. Maybe his linesman saw it.

I think the ref is card happy...
in most cases though.. for legitimate reason...

Every single card was well deserved though, can't really argue with that.

yeah... this game is a dud....
waiting on the extra time
hb81 - true.. can't argue with the fact that the cards have been flying because of actions taken by the players...
