IMO referee didnt kill the game, it's more due to NL faults. Both teams sucked in final, i dont like Spain, coz it's too defensive. Some countries like Germany or Uruguay played a very offensive game, it was a pleasure to watch but not enough efficient against Spain.

btw France sucks but we will win next WC and EC Wink

The spanish all acted like the got hit by a tree. (Robben does the same btw)
The tackles weren't that hard, it's just the crying of the players afterwards and the referee stopping the game with every little push. Heitinga got his first yellow card for something the ref didn't even see. He didn't even give a free kick at first hand. And then the spanish guy kept crying and suddenly he gets yellow. For nothing..

And if the referee wants to be so strict then why didn't he give all those spanish ppl yellow for asking for cards? I've seen like 6 people doing that movement with the hands. Or Puyol who grabs around the full body when robben was passed the defence. The ref also stopped the game for Spain sometimes when nothing happened. Let them play, the whole world acts like our game was very hard, and then they all show the flying kick of De Jong. It was the same kind of thing that happened to De Zeeuw when someone kicked him in the face, it's just a stupid accident. Do you really think professional soccerplayers will do such obvious kicks on purpose? :roll:

yes they do. they are so full of aggression at such important matches. or why else would there be so many crowd forming in this wc. one spain guy dunno which did a revanche foul which is also very stupid since its also directly red but rev didnt see again. it was a really physical hard match theres no doubt.

Here go ahead and look, this movie was made to make all fouls look bad.
But just check how each tackle was meant to hit the ball, sure in these cases they never get to hit the ball, so some of those cards are well given, but it has nothing to do with aggression of the dutch players.

The flying kick is similair to this one, the Uruguayan player never meant to hit the other player, but he misses the ball, because the dutch player hit it short before.
They can't stop in the middle of the air. In those super slo-mo clips it looks like they got all time, but just look the first clips how fast such things are going. Both fouls were dangerous play and the ref gave them the right card for that. But there are also a lot of fouls were it was a little push or even nothing, where the spanish guys kept lying on the ground. And still they get a yellow card for that.
Sure the spanish people deserve the fair play trophy for almost making no fouls in this tourney, but they also deserve an emmy award for best actors.
