    They need to calm down. They won't win anything if they start getting people sent off.

    Jesus that was fairly reckless there. Hope they cop on now and it's not ruined by a few sendings off

    Webb's doing well so far. Setting a standard and meeting it.

    Yup, he's decided he's completely fine with the Spanish players in particular surrounding him every time he blows the whistle.

    In fairness with some of the tackles the dutch are putting in no one can blame them.

    2 key yellows are the ones on VanBommel and DeJong - should mean the Spanish midfield have more freedom

    That looked fairly painful from De Jong. I was up for the dutch but their dirty play is turning me off them.

    Although Van Bommel is dirty in the right way

    Wouldn't be surprised to see this go to extra-time on the basis of the first half hour and the number of chances created.

    They have been putting in dirty tackles all tournament long. The refs didn't punsuh them. Webb bottled that DE jong high kick.
    Come on Spain!

    How much would he cost would you say? He looks absolute quality on the rare occasion i've seen him. Is he a regular starter for Hamburg?

    The yellows should free up the game for the second half. Already Spain are getting more into it in the last 10 minutes. I really think that Fabregas would make an impact in this game, much more used to teams shutting up shop that his colleagues who play in La Liga.

    Is there anyone on the Dutch bench they could put on to replace Van Bommel with at half time?
    Sneijder could be in trouble now too :rolleyes:
