Oh damn!
That keeper can look dodgy hitting a goal kick, let alone when he has to dive... Doesn't mean it was easily defensible.Looked like some dodgy Goalkeeping to me, great strike, though.
Yeah that's what I thoughtyellow for RvP (shirt tagging)
penalty/indirect FK in the box for Mexico (kick in the head/dangerous play)
yellow for Robben (simulation)
penalty for Holland (tackle on Robben)
otherwise good
It was a great shot but the keeper was not well positioned. He saw the run coming in from his left but didn't move that way until it was too late.It was some hit, few keepers would have stopped that.
Wearing a suit in this heat.The coach.
I reckon they will.Holland won't get back into this.
Argentina hasn't made anything look easy yet.I've got money on Netherlands but I still wouldn't mind seeing Mexico win. Would give Argentina an amazingly easy run to the final though.
Are you still happy with your tactics?How on earth can people really complain about Holland's tactics this game? It's insufferably hot by all accounts and so of course the bulk of their possession is going to consist of slow passing and control. They're not going to play risky passes to the front men as often as they usually would, nor are they going to burn themselves out by pressing as hard as they usually would. Whether we like it or not, the conditions demand controlled, careful, tactical football. For all people are saying, Holland should be 1.0 up, the ref has bottled it twice with Robben in light of his reputation. But if the foul just outside the box and the one inside the area (there were two really), weren't really fouls but dives by Robben, why isn't he booking him? As I said, he's bottling it.
Unfortunately, same here. You never know though, particularly at this World Cup.I'm not convinced Netherlands are going to get back into this.
If Holland go out it's a massive failure for LvG and United. Let there be no doubts about that.
LvG worse than Moyes.
How is this a failure for United? I'm sure Moyes would be more like Hodgson.If Holland go out it's a massive failure for LvG and United. Let there be no doubts about that.
LvG worse than Moyes.
The heat is one of several factors, which include under performing players and a poor midfield.Holland are struggling in the heat. It must be nearly unplayable for a European team.
