im blogging rite now in the wee hrs of the morning becos the match between Netherlands and Portugal has jus ended and i am damn pissed off. firstly becos the dutch went out of the world cup. and secondly, the portugese played fucking dirty. use all sorts of small actions to give their team the advantage; diving, play acting and hacking at the dutch's leg. WTF, this is football lor, we wan to see great skills and great action. the match turned from a would be spectacle to a great debacle. especially figo. KNN, he only ran passed and brushed u accidentally with the swinging arm lor, u fell like u were hit by a train. i do hope u get hit by a train one day sia. and u head butted van bommel, u are damn lucky the stupid referee missed it. fucking portugese, play jus like their club sides. dive and cheat using all sorts of tactical fouls to stop the opponents from playing.

thirdly, the referee was a bloody idiot lar, alot of infractions on the dutch he also nv give. den kept giving the advantage to the portugese, he also missed alot of things lar. wad kind of referee misses action here and there one???!!! he needed to consult the assistant so many times lar. stupid russian. i hope u crash and burn in hell ah!!!! and he gave a total of 16 yellow and 4 red cards lar. turned the whole match upside down inside out. fights nearly broke twice lar, he couldnt even control it. 4th and 5th officials had to step in to prevent anything worse from happening lor, even scolari had to step in. stupid referee, cant even control the match. jus drop dead lar, the footballing world would be better with one less referee like you.

fourth, that bloddy dirk kuyt sux like hell lar. van basten crticised van nistelrooy for not getting involved with the attack as often as needed. but i didnt see anything from kuyt that suggests he did a better job. WTH, he was like a mere passer-by lar. left it all to the wingers to shoot and attack. pls lar, they are wingers lor, they are suppose to pass the ball to you and score. instead they had to do the shooting. and van basten, i have to say he is a good coach lar - brought the dutch a long way while playing beautifully - but y did he leave van nistelrooy out??!! even when the team needed a true striker on the pitch, he chose to bring a totally unproven hesselink on and he did nothing noteworthy.

on a final note, i appluad the dutch. they played so beautifully today. the attacking was totally magnificent, a total of 20 shots at goal lor. movement off the ball was perfect too. even when the match was ending, u guys jus kept plugging away at the portugese goal hoping to get a breakthrough. a pity u guys went out so early, and the world losing the chance to see the oranje play attacking and wonderful football at the world cup. luckily this is a young squad and if they do stick together and van basten stays coach, im sure they will do damn well for EURO 2008 and beyond.
