Only a matter of time before van Bommel gets another card.

He's a great player, but you just sort of want to punch Robben in the face.

Van Bommel is completely out of control and needs to be taken off the pitch before he gets sent off

I don't wanna hear anymore bitching about the Dutch flopping. The Spanish have taken it to previously unknown heights in this half.

It is a flopathon across the board. This game hasn't been good in any regard.

I guess I don't disagree with you. Clearly the most effective tactic to neutralize a deficiency in technical ability is to make the game physical. More than anything else, I'm just disappointed that the Dutch are playing that way. Germany looked uncomfortable in their own skin against the Spanish and lost as a result. The Dutch have the technical ability to stick with Spain, but they chose to go away from that. I can't see the Dutch winning this game if they keep playing this game.

I don't get why they see the need to resort to these tactics. I would have thought that at some point the risk of losing players to reds is greater than the risk of being outplayed technically. Do the Dutch have no confidence that they can hang with the Spanish playing straight-up? Very strange approach if this is the case. I was rooting for the Dutch at the beginning but now this is devolving into an unappealing slugfest that should end on someone choking on a PK after extra time. Kind of like a Super Bowl gone bad.

On second thought, just take off Kuyt and play no one instead. Be better off without him passing the ball to Spain every time he touches it.

3. Heitinga
4. Sergio Ramos

Dragon Master:
1. de Jong

Power Smurf:
1. Sneijder
