Netherlands - Russia: the final of 1988...
Saturday, 21 June 08, 07:17 PM
Half Time: Russia did an impressive-amazing-spectacular first half!! The oranje are defending....they scored 9 goals so far...and they are defending against Russia!!! Guus Hidding is really good, I'm amazed by the Russia players: they play fast, have some nice plays, and almost scored 3 times...but Van deer Saar is...van der Saar.

Before Kick Off: the last time - and the only time - Netherlands won a competition was 20 years ago (Netherlands and Spain are underachievers). But the teammates of Van der Saar are playing a wonderful football, a football that disappeared 30 years ago with Johan Cruijff - TOTAL FOOTBALL!!!
