Re: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa
I got the impression that both teams were undeserving. What a foul-fest, Netherlands earned their loss by playing way to aggressive. Fairly unprofessional showing on both sides, was a poor excuse for a football game. The fact that it dragged on into extra time only went to prove both teams were unfit to raise the cup in glory. It was a World Cup match of "who will mess up more", as opposed to "who brings more talent to the table".
I can only hope next tourney some teams with offensive talent will make it to the finals, this years final was ho-hum at best and lack-luster overall. The first half was a bad showing from both sides, and while the 2nd did have more open field plays it was simply a display of who played worse, as opposed to who played better.
Congrats to Spain, I hope they realize what a Cinderella story theirs really is, and I hope next time the teams in the finals give us the show we expect.
(11 fouls, and 1 red card in the Fifa world cup? How unprofessional are these squads?)
