ESP v NED 20.00 hrs BBC1/RTE2

OwaynOTT · 13-06-2014 9:31pm

Dutch have really battered Spain tonight. Spain very poor so far with only their dubious penalty making it any way respectable.

Kirby · 13-06-2014 9:31pm

Spain lost the first game in 2010. Remember that.

David Silva missed an easy 1v1 to make it 2-0 to Spain. Football...margins....etc.

It wasnt quite passed him, but regardless he fouled him. I know they are too protected and I dont agree with it, however when you make physical contact with a keeper as much as that it has to be a foul imo.

What's the foul for? What did rvp do wrong? Is he not entitled to jump for the ball. His eyes were on te ball, hands weren't up. Did nothing wrong so why a foul?

Shouldn't have even started the game

Delighted for RVP

I wonder will a certain user be back on at any point to discuss exactly where it all went wrong

Who is going to construct a post detailing the tactical and technical magnificence of the Dutch display in tearing the Sapnish a new asshole?

Hey...it was a Madridista who cost Spain the game.....

Grid. · 13-06-2014 9:32pm

C'mon the Dutch!!!!

It's an honest question. I'll be shouting for Uruguay myself. I don't understand the hate for Spain on here.

Lol ur shouting for Uruguay I wonder why, I'm shouting for Holland because its nice to see the winners get bet for a change and RVP and van gal are man utd.

That doesn't mean there's hate for Spain, Spain are getting what they deserve today. Costa was caught cheating and unfairly won Spain a penalty

Casillas was unlucky there.

In what way unlucky? He ''controlled'' the ball further than I can kick it there.

A Primal Nut · 13-06-2014 9:32pm

For those saying Van Persies challenge on the keeper was a foul. If two outfield players jumped up to head the ball, made contact with each other and both missed the ball, who would you give the foul to?

Spanish fans clearing their throats for the Fields of Athenry...

Professional Griefer · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

What a glorious result

amkin25 · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

Casillas surely has to be dropped.

They didnt lose it 4 -1

klose · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

Will be very interesting to see if del bosque changes up the centre backs and goalkeeper after this

ceegee · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

Casillas lucky that Rvp took the goal rather than going down on contact

_Kaiser_ · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

The foam for the wall is a great idea

I am pie · 13-06-2014 9:33pm

regardless of the keeper issue, this is a tactical masterclass from van gaal....and i am a liverpool fan. a demonsration in how to press and counter at pace. tailor made for utd...sadly.

Not 4-1 though.

Big score from Chile against Aus tonight and they'll be in bother.

Doesn't really matter as he'll probably be dropped anyway.

Yeah as long as he gets all the players on his side(I'm thinking Rooney) they will be very dangerous and should be back to where thy are used to

He bumped Casillas when he was going for the ball. You cant still foul someone even though it mightnt have been malicious or anything, its still a foul.

Speaking for myself, tiki taka and diving are the reasons I dislike spain.

Brazil cheated last night and no one turned against them. It was all about the ref.
