Yeah, if fans from team A gets a match abandoned, then team B wins. Happened to Denmark a few yeas ago vs Sweden, danish fan ran onto pitch and tried to attack a player.

Lol @ the Dutch Players reactions!
spoiled little brats that have had their toys taken from them.
really doesn't suit them (a bit of 2010 syndrome imo)


Overwhelming amount of possession - No! 52-48 is hardly overwelming!
Denmark were only interrested in defending - what nonesence!
Underserved win - Bullshit!
bla bla ref cheated us - get over it!

Face it, with 29 shots and only 8 on target, tells a clear story that you were bloody ineffective!
your defence was a joke and Germany will have a field day.

I am really suprised how dutch people (including the squad) thought how 'easy' it would be to defeat the danish... We had luck in the world cup vs 'Denemarken' ;), and they qualified above Portugal. (note: if you face a danish team where 80% of em speak dutch, don't fall into tricks like Rommedahl saying ' its safe Vlaar, easy!'..../facepalm! However I thought Denmark can play better football then they showed last night, I've seen nice combinations during the qualifiers didn't really see them yesterday.:( I honestly think Denmark has a good chance of reaching the semi finals if they continue as 2nd and face the russians in the quarter.

(on a side note: how many times can u grab the ball with ur hands befor it's illegal? oh my.. :censored:)

It's funny I actually thought the first was a more clear penalty that the second,
you cant go aiming at a defenders arm and expect to get a penalty! imo it's no better than diving in the box an good on the ref that he didnt fall for it!

The first one how ever...well...accidental or on purpose? I've seen the replay a couple times, and he does seem genuinely surprised that it bounces on his fingertips.

He made a handsball twice in the same action .
If i were a ref, i would not give a penalty for the first touch on the upper arm, but the 2nd contact.. well.. that is definitly a penalty (no worries though, we would've missed it:D)

2nd touch the ball is kicked at the arm, would have been a soft penalty imo :p

still looks to me as if it's a deliberate attempt to hit L.Jacobsens arm.
he sees it, he goes for it, and the reaction? well, for a lack of a better word Yes! I hit it! Refffffff! (as in notice the dutch player through that play)
but sure, no one would argue against it had he blown for a penalty.

but we could just as well have argued that v.persie should have shown the red card for what he did to Agger...and V. Bommels Willian Kvist slaughter.

wouldn't it be funny though, if Denmark get awarded a crucial penalty for the same thing later on in the tournement ?

I do feel for the dutch fans though, (the ones I've "spoken to")
The leading dutch players however can s-m-b.

The Danes deserved the win - the Netherlands players were very wastefull in front of goal and at times shambolic in defense. Denmark had a pretty good go at getting the second goal and as the posession stats showed they had good periods of dominating play.

It was a very entertaining game and the Danes did themselves credit by not just sitting back like Portugal did. The Netherlands players showed great selfishness in front of goal continually shooting from difficult angles and great distances rather than passing the ball.

I don't think it'll end a draw like, it's going to end with someone upset (I hope anyway!).
