comparing this ref to the one in the poland - greece game this was a saint, best ref of the tourney so far.

Well done Denmark-
And its Football, Soccer is something they play in america -
I'm dutch and I'm glad its over. Bloody football craze...grats Denmark.
Why would you take out Van Persie? He was the leading scorer in the EPL... But I agree some of the hand balls should probably have been called. The Dutch however looked terrible and played extremely sloppy, Denmark outplayed them hands down.
Denmark played very defensively which can/is (be) very dangerous against a more outgoing team like Holland.. Holland dominated the first half for sure, but Denmark scored because our defense was just so crap.. de dutch defense was letting denmark players passing the ball around and they just stood there doing nothing... that's just crap. But our offensive part was motivated but very unlucky as well as bad :<
On the note of the ref: I think he needs a pair of glasses, because the denmark player touched the ball with his hands twice in the 16meter zone and tbfh, that should've been a penalty (after all the other hands balls).. The ref did a okay job, could've been better...
Also: Everyone from Holland AND Denmark is biased
Honestly, I wish that Denmark had lost so we'd shut up about Football for once... Urgh, we won in '92 and we are still living on that... MOVE ON!
Amazing sig, done by mighty Lokann
Corrupt referee? I think the referee did a great job. I cannot see where he should have awarded a penalty to the Netherlands for handball.
The danes played to the maximum of their capacity. The netherlands played worse than they normally do and should have scored atleast 1 time on one of their many chances.
For the love of...it's just a game! So we lost, big whoop, did you really expect anything else? Oh, and making statements about people having to leave the country if they don't agree with you is childish at best.
Hello, I'm Dutch. No. The referee was not bribed. Kuyt should've been in the game since the beginning, Van Persie is an overrated chump and Sneijder didnt get enough support. Dont even let me begin about Robben...
This is a wake up call for the Netherlands, stop supporting your overrated player so much (remember the finale against Spain?) and use some common fucking sense. Kuyt is by far the strongest player in the Dutch team, he's a goddamn elephant and he doesnt even get enough play time. The hell? Stop coming up with excuses and accept the loss. Denmark was much stronger, even though they didnt have the ball as much as Netherlands, they made it count whenever they did. They simply had a better defense.
- Corrupt? no
- hands? for sure: it hit his arm his body and then again his hand. He knew where the ball was going and still stopped it with his hand -> intentional
- Denmark played the correct strategy and won, case closed
Lol, there's always at least one who will claim that the referee is on the other team's payroll.
