It is very strange to be a dutch fan. It was a hard to play game, because France had a lot of pressure. They still have first class players. But if you can start without Robben and Van Persie, you know you've got great striking capacity. The only thing that worried me at the start of the tournement was the defence. Boulahrouz hadn't played since october 2007, so what he was capable of wasn't sure, but man, he did a great job. Suddenly we seem to be masters in counter striking. Quite balanced defence and before you know it, we're off...great goals yesterday.
Nice moment when Henry made a great goal, Robben just sprinted away and hammered the ball behind Coupet, that really closed the deal.....Sneijder again man of the match...Real must be thrilled about their players being important!
I hope we can keep up the
good work, ánd the good spirit! We'll see....
