I thought the ref was REALLY sympathetic towards Nederland! He could easily have sent off a few of the Dutch...

What game were you watching?

I do admit the dutch got away with it quite a lot but bloody hell, fucking spaniards diving left, right and centre. Must be fans of Ronaldo.

delling

Hehe, yeah, diving sucks... but they're not potentially fatal like kicks to the chest :P

imo the only questionable thing was when Puyol grabbed Robben..! In the books, all the "diving" incidents were faults, and it was decided before the tournament started, that the judges were supposed to be hard/just in all such cases.

Yeah, video above should've been instantly red - it even would've been red in Premier League!

Other than that, it was a pretty good game. I liked the Spain vs. Germany game better, but you can't see such beatiful football all the time I guess ;)

Guanoape

Horrible match, both teams played way below average, but in the end Spain deserved to win. We have no right to complain about the referee either, because he should have sent de Jong off with a red card immediately (these fouls are only permitted against Christiano Ronaldo imo). Disappointing end to a disappointing tournament.

kagir

Oh yeah.. I guess Holland should've gotten a corner near the end where after the freekick where the ball hitted the wall and Casillas touched it was well ;)

Kendoki

Deserved win for Spain... Robben should have scored 2x already, but he didn't; sure it was 100% a corner, but well... thats how things go.

"Uruguay striker Diego Forlan was named the winner of the Golden Ball as the best player of the World Cup.

German Thomas Mueller, who also scored five, was named by Fifa as the best young player of the tournament.

Mueller, 20, also won the Golden Boot for most goals - his three assists acting as a tie-breaker."

Why can't BBC add umlauts :S

Well deserved by these 2 players.

Grishnag

to be honest neither spain nor the netherlands deserved to win this tournament

ah well hopefully by the next tournament we have have some technological aid cause what happened in this world cup cant be fucking ignored so much fail from the refs... so so much

I thought most people agreed that Spain was the best team at the World Cup!

Go Spain!

Fortunately we didn't had shit games like the Italian and French teams did 4 years ago. Holland vs Spain apparently got close (haven't seen the first half). Wtf was that kung-fu jump. He didn't even get a red card for that? Doh.
