Beautiful build up from the Dutch.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.

Honestly, Spain can't start Casillas in the next match. No confidence left.

lol there was a sequence there where three of them decided to shoot instead of pass it for a sure goal. I guess you can do that when you've already put five past the opponent :lol:
