keeper should have had it though. If I'd been in goal that would've ruined my sunday lunch

Holland will kick themselves if they don't win. Will they ever again have a better chance to get to the final than Uruguay in the semi?

 

[perseus]

goal of the tournament not much will top that

Best goal before?

Luis Suarez ? against South Korea?

Nice to see players finally getting to grips with how to hit the ball.

Endo (NOT HONDA) vs Denmark? The SA equalizer in the opener vs Mexico wasn't bad either

 

[Simster]

Love the crowd shots from the competing countries as the goals go in. All the orange in Amsterdam, and the MENTALISTS in Montevideo.

 

[perseus]

What distance did Giovanni Van Bronckhorst strike the ball from into the ?

My guess: 33 yards

41 yards, 61 mph

 

[perseus]

Are all Dutch keepers like Kuipers? Rash

Bugger.

 

[footychick]

Shit. Crap goal

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Goal Holland.

Maybe this is what it'd have been like if England had scraped through. Unexciting game, little inspiration, inept strikers, poor keeper and the odd flash of skill in midfield.

 

[patchamalbion]

would be very harsh to go out on that shite

 

[perseus]

Holland 3 Uruguay 1

 

[JBizzle]

That's that then... Sorry Gus

[Lady Whistledown]

Why are the Dutch fans not bouncing around? Or are the ones in the stadium all Afrikaners with only a tenuous link to the motherland?

 

[Twinkle Toes]

And it's "au revoir" Uraguay, as David Pleat might just say. f***ing Robben too. There is no god.
