Holland have nobody to blame for what happened tonight besides themselves. Watching them tonight made me wish that Uruguay had beaten them in the semis. At least they'd have been up for a game of football. And I say that as someone who's always had great admiration for Dutch football.

yes de Jong deserved a red... aside from that, every call went to Spain. and don't try and tell me Puyol played Robben cleanly on his 2nd breakaway [the one in which he didn't get a shot off because Puyol grabbed him and wrapped his leg around him. it would've been a red too if Robben had fallen/dove]. also towards the end when the black dutch winger kept getting past CapdeVilla and getting fouled and would get not even a kick.
