Soft penalty, but when a defender puts his hands on an opponent, it presents an opportunity to go down easily and runs the risk of the ref buying it.

 

Yellow was the correct card for Neymar. Caught him, but no swinging elbow.

 

Olic jumped in to the goalkeeper. Could have gone either way.

 

Wach his eyes,deliberate elbow.If that had been a Coratian it would have been red for sure.

Host nation must stay in the tournament at all costs is the unwritten rule.:rolleyes:

Looked like the keeper may have jumped into Olic, 50-50 ball terrible call.

Speaking of big nations with weak teams, that Holland side is seriously weak in defence and midfield. With Robben you never know what can happen though.

 

Spain literally have an entire squad of world class players, though they start off slowly in tournaments often. They have a far better side than Holland but there probably won't be a huge amount in this. Probably 70% possession for Spain and a 1-0, 2-1 or 2-0 win.

 

I remember when DA joined us Holland became my team in big tournaments and they were just a joy to watch but always gloriously failed. Remember Bergkamp v Argentina (was only 10 years old but remember it like it was yesterday and went nuts when it went in)
