what a great match of football! the best of the tournament so far. football is a beautiful game!
I agree with 'skeeta' the first goal was on-side, I read in the newspaper today, the head of the referee association of the country wrote an article saying it wasn't offside...
Italy played like shit and gifted the victory to the dutch who came to this match very well prepared and played beautifully but I wouldn't say they are so good because the team they faced was awful.
except pirlo, italy showed no quality at all. but there are still 2 matches...
but the big surprise of the day was holland and holland's relatively underrated players!! what a beast is ENGLAAR!! amazing to tihnk he's 28 years old playing for FC Twente...
and giovanni van brockhorst was brilliant! my man of the match, because of holland's second goal! he saved the ball from the line and ran all the way to make a brilliant cross to kuyt...
can't wait for the remaining matches in this group!
matches like this make interest in big tournaments.
