Puyol fouled Robben on his second attack on Casillas, but Robben still should have scored anyways (his first miss was unforgivable) and the problem for Webb was that he couldn't call Puyol then because he had already carded him when he shouldn't have in the first 15 minutes of the match. <br /><br />Then there was that sordid display of three Spanish players diving in succession on the same attack...Fabregas will always be remembered by me for his crappy flop. Arsemal will not miss him too greatly. Iniesta dove with accomplishment from some point in the second half on, but you have to feel he wouldn't have chosen to play that kind of game but for the Dutch tactics.Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888593088238166613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994805991731972299.post-55321508386573975712010-07-12T13:01:50.797-07:002010-07-12T13:01:50.797-07:00I agree it was a disgrace.

I have to say I think where the Dutch were brutal, the Spanish were subtle and there were 4 or 5 very key moments for the Dutch that the Spanish dealt with by tricky difficult to spot fouls throughout the game. Could be they were just reacting to the Dutch or it could be the Dutch were more clumsy and were therefore more obvious. The kick to the chest should have been a red card and the game would have at least finished in 90mins with a Spanish win rather than a continued war on the pitch!inreposehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808052726738684756noreply@blogger.com
