Sadly that game is another example of why the great game of football will not prosper in my country.
Diving, rolling, stumbling - arm waving wankers all over the ref. Mostly wearing the Spanish jersey.
The Dutch hacked and smacked - but there was nothing beautiful from either side.
At one point in the second half the Spanish number 8 kicked himself - and collapsed to the ground looking to milk the penalty. WTF was that all about?
Apart from missing the goal - Robben's mistake was not falling when Puyol was giving him a big cuddle from behind. Which says something about the state of the game at the top level.
Iniesta's goal was well finished - I did think he was offside for starters - but it was the right call by the sideline official.
Congrats Spain.
But the mighty New Zealand All Whites finish as the only UNDEFEATED team in the World Cup. Wooohooo!!
Someone serve up that freaking octopus as well.
