The Netherlands' Performance in the World Cup
I was really excited to see the Netherlands play in the flesh, I think they've been one of the best teams that we've seen play in this tournament. The amount of energy was dissipated by being in the stadium and watching that performance. But that does not take away the credit because if you'd have given me as an England fan, if you'd given me that Netherlands performance tonight,. I would have taken it in a heartbeat. It was a professional performance. They got the two goals how they did. South Africa weren't particularly clever out of possession. A lot of pace was burnt or spent not winning the ball back and just pressing as a solo striker - which wasn't ideal.
