had easy route to finals. they got lucky against brazil ( with self goal). played violent foot ball . they deserved to lose with this kind of football.
Roben had the best, with more than 99 per cent certainty of a goal, opportunity in the match but his and the goal keeper's legs as well as luck didn't favor both Roben and Netherlands and the World Cup went to Spain. That fateful moment will haunt him for ever.

You miss the (rare) chance..that doesn't mean opponents are lucky..you are incapable of... that was a fantastic save by Spain Goal keeper. Except 2 or 3 attempts what else Robben did in the final?

He must have made a drama of being injured falsely by his opponents as he did against Brazil.

he is hell of an actor. He almost awaits chances to go down and penalise opposition players. Again Bommel is one guy netherlands should be ashamed of. All in all Netherlands played ugliest football all throughout the world cup.
