Run up to the fucking referee and abuse him as if it was his fault they lost, ignoring the fact that for 90 minutes their only hope of scoring was from a set piece or a counter attack, that they were hopelessly outclassed across the field, and they essentially defended and hoped for Robben to do something.
An Australian football personality said that "only one team came to play" and I think that is the truth.
Spain diving? The Netherlands could have lost 3 players instead of just one throughout the course of the game to red cards.
