Ref did as good as he can with the dutch playing as dirty and sloppy as they were. Spain frustrated them and it made for a fairly shitty game. Its too bad Robbens skill doesn't match his speed. He has to be the fastest guy in the world playing football at that elite level, but god damn is he shite. Cut left, dive, cry, cut left, flop around, cut left , dribble, miss breakaway, cut left, miss breakaway, cut left, dive, cry, sprint, miss breakaway, lose world cup, cry.
I think people are a little hard on Robben. the guy comes back from a Hamstring tear, a 6-8 week injury in 3-4 weeks and then is a massive threat all tourny playing at 75%. brazil could do nothing but take him down, Uruguay couldn't contain him in the second half and quite frankly he made 2 brilliant runs cutting throw the middle that should have resulted in the dutch holding the cup. Sure he didn't finish but the first one Iker knew nothing about, it hit his toe nail for fukc sakes with him diving and looking in the wrong direction, 99 out of 100 that still goes in. Sure he dives but quuite frankly so do 99% of these skill guys that everyone seems so anxious to see.(Ronaldo, Robben Iniesta,Villa etc.). I agree with Ranger Forever on Schweinstager he was great all tourny but did he play against Spain, invisible when it was on the line against a better team that's when the best find a way to get it done.
