World Cup 2010 South Africa

Don't know. In my opinion Robben & Van Persie don't like each other. I haven't seen the group matches, or the match with the Slovakian team, but I've seen the last 3 matches. They avoid passing each other.

i think you are right with this opinion...i remember having read similiar things about van persie at arsenal a few times...seems he is a difficult character.

[Pete-Rock]

...with the fact that Van Persie once again proved he is overrated as hell, it would have been 11 vs 8.

+1

he is very very overrated...looking back on great dutch strikers like marco van basten or ruud van nistelroy, van persie is a joke...not good enough and always very lazy to run for the team

+1

totally overrated

no leaf clover, i am not pointing the finger at you my friend i am just saying that the referee was bad for both ends and we can't blame the Dutch for losing the match just based on that, Robben had the cup on his feet and he missed, Iniesta didn't. That is football.

I know how u feel, my team is always on the wrong side when it comes to "bad refereeing" but it's part of the game unfortunately and it was bad for both teams.

I am glad Iniesta scored the winner, him and Xavi is the best players in the world, both have a field of vision that is incredible and they can put passes where no one else can. Iniesta is one little giant and I would have him on my team any day of the week.

Holland has a great team, and with the likes of Sneijder and Robben playing the way they play and young players on the horizon, I am sure Holland will get back to the finals sooner than later... just get rid of van persie he seems like a terrible influence in the locker room

iniesta and xavi are fantastic i still remember the beginning of the careers of xavi and puyol and a lot of people said they will never make it at barca...hahaha...and now both have one everything in world football (world cup, european title, champions league, ...)

sneijder and robben are excellent players too and have proven it during the whole season and the world cup tournament...maybe the next EURO will be their time to win

I read this in a newspaper:

Johan Cruyff, ex-player and Dutch ex-trainer of the Barcelona, has proved to be forceful at the moment of analyzing the style of the selection of his country, to which it has qualified of " snub, calk, hardly, hermetically, slightly show and slightly soccer ".

In an article published in ' The Newspaper of Catalonia ', Cruyff has assured that the final of the World one gained it " the fact that more it is deserved ".

Believes the ex-technician that Andrés Iniesta, author of the goal who gave to him to Spain the title, represents " to the best Barça, to the capable player and whom more it suffers ".

In an article published in ' The Newspaper of Catalonia ', Cruyff has assured that the final of the World one

Cruyff has admitted that should win the one who was gaining the final was going to take a happiness to him. " There was losing the one who was losing, it was going to suffer a disappointment. And big. So ended the party 0-0, it knew that the rest was a lottery. And when I saw how Iniesta was putting on his equipment on the shoulders, I thought that it would win ", he has said.

Has explained Cruyff that this not showy at all style of Holland served " to upset Spain ", an equipment that played " twenty marvellous minutes (..), but that accepted the change of blows and entered the provocation ".

" Some were practising the antifootball on having thought that it was the only way of surviving and others, the favorites, were living in a scene that they was sounding too much for detestably, for snub. Because of it it came near to 0-0, because those who wanted could not ", it has commented.

To the margin of the great work of both doormen (Cabins and Stekelenburg), Cruyff has praised Andrés Iniesta. " He has been one year old durísimo, very long-suffering, with very much pain in his heart (the loss of his friend Dani Jarque was disheartening for him) and injuries that they him separated of his dear Barça ", he has said

" It is necessary to have a great heart, very much courage and be a special type this dedication to make up and to show it to the entire world to offer this goal that so happy has done so many people. It gained Spain, Iniesta made goals and I triumph the style Barça ", has summarized Cruyff.

The Dutch also has been useful to criticize the arbitration of the Englishman Howard Webb. " Arbitral evil can, be wrong, but what cannot is to create your own justice and, worse still, to invent a too personal application of the regulation ", according to the ex-trainer.

It has made clear that the umpire " not only stopped expelling two Dutches (even Steal the second yellow one deserved) ", but " it looked for another side in the moments in those who should be had involved ". " A final of the Glass of the World deserves a great arbitration and, especially, there deserves an umpire who dares to do everything what implies being a judge ", has insisted.
