    Don't letl Robben turn on to his only foot.

    Repeat after me.

    Robben; as i say: bossing it. Such a classy player, the confidence and composure he has displayed for both his goals is something else.

    To think; I thought the first 45 were rubbish.

    I'm shell shocked and I don't even support Spain or want them to do well. Unreal stuff.

    Shades of Darren Bent and Melchiot with that last Robben goal. How much of a start did he give Ramos?
  • Blimus! Ramos was towing a caravan there. This is proper mad.
  • Vlaar has been tremendous tonight. Not given them a sniff.

    Brilliant Dutch performance. Even when they don't have the ball and aren't hassling & harrying for the ball (as Spain themselves have done so well the last 6/7 years), they are setting themselves up so that Spain have so few options & just leaving them with nowhere to go.

    Having had a go at Casillas what a brilliant save from a magnificent hit from Robben. Great game to watch.

    Agree completely, he dealt with that perfectly.

    I'm loving that the Dutch aren't riding the last 10 minutes out or relaxing.

    Van Gaal. The man who started and finished Spain's success.

    That's when you know it's not your night...great take by Blind, but Torres should have buried it...even the poor Torres we've seen in the last couple of seasons!!

    Not so long ago we were able to watch the likes of Robben and van Persie at The Valley.....

    Oh well we've got Reza as our World cup player.

  • What a game.

    Wow!! What the Dutch could, and should, do on a regular tournament basis if they weren't always riven with cliques (no, not you CL mob) and divisions in their squads. Van Gaal has got them purring. Wonderful to watch.

    Piece in Standard on way home tonight about last final going something like...tika taka tika taka FOUL, tika taka FOUL, tika FOUL, taka FOUL!

    Dutch turned it round tonight...tika taka tika taka ah cr@p, tika taka, bu&&er, tika sh!te, taka bollox tika taka feck!!

    I think we've just witnessed one of the greatest ever WC performances there. Who saw that coming?

    I can't stand Robben, but hats off to him tonight.

    It's also not so long ago that we had players who could match them in a game and stop them.
