Take Romero off and the Argies fall to **** Argies are rattled now too, the Dutch have advantage going into extra time.
Brilliant free kick. Almost a lost art - we watch kick after kick after kick. That was creativity at its best.
The Dutch are the same as Brazil to the pundit class: bang on about the 1974 or (at a push) 1988 teams, even during The Battle of Nuremberg or 2010 final
Was wondering whether the attacking players were in fact 1m from the wall (would be some ref to have disallowed the goal on that basis) .
Dutch have seen how they could unsettle Argentina and score goals and yet they return to boring them to death. Argentina deserve this more IMO.
Martinez with a couple of excellent saves there. Argies deserved it on the basis of play. Dutch way too negative, even when they found a weak point to get back into the game they reverted back to the defensive nonsense.
The most amazing thing about that game was how the referee kept the score on who he had given yellows too.
