Howard Webb was giving the Dutch more lives than a cat with his leniency.
He's traditionally lenient with cards in finals.

Actually, it wasn't.lol at not being biased.
AND IT WAS OFFSIDE.. ARE U BLIND?
Not the pass on iniesta but beforehand.
Taken out of context, he was only looking at the ball and went up to control it, by the time he saw the Spanish guy it was already too late and he couldn't pull back anymore.![]()
HOLLAND WANT TO COMPLAIN? LOOOOOOOOL
Pay up.Lets bet €5000 euro's son.
NOT THE PASS ON INIESTA BUT BEFOREHAND OMFG.
Lol even Clarence Seedorf said both passes were onside, and of course he would be biased against the Dutch right?Look at this thread tommorow. Your gonna see the vid Mr. Blind person
lol @ random west coast people using saltylol @ random dutch kids being salty
No it was dangerous play and he was no where near the ball.Taken out of context, he was only looking at the ball and went up to control it, by the time he saw the Spanish guy it was already too late and he couldn't pull back anymore.
It's similar to how the guy from Urugay kicked a dutch player in the face, it was an accident.
Thank you.Anyway;

It wasn't offside.
Advantage was given, but obviously Robben wasn't at an advantage because he missed, he should've gotten a free kick. And Puyol should've gotten his second yellow card and should've been sent off.Puyol had an arm on Robben for 2 seconds yes, but Robben played on and had a goal scoring opporrtunity.
^And about those situations I just mentioned.He was booked for shouting at the ref for like 5 minutes.
HOLLAND CAN ONLY COMPLAIN ABOUT THE CORNER THAT WAS NOT GIVEN.
You can't give advantage and a foul. It's one or the other.Advantage was given, but obviously Robben wasn't at an advantage because he missed, he should've gotten a free kick. And Puyol should've gotten his second yellow card and should've been sent off.
I thought he should have been sent off but he hardly touched him and anyway his reaction was after Van Bommel went studs first over his foot.Also, Iniesta should've gotten a red card for attacking Van Bommel out of spite.
Can't remember it tbh.Oh? How about when Iniesta stepped on Heitinga's foot and got a free kick for it?
Sneijder studs up against Busquests = redThey can also complain about getting cards for every offense they made, when the Spanish played aggressive as well and made their fair share of fouls but didn't get any cards.
The ref ruined the game really..
Yeah but he seemed to miraculously have the strength to stay on his feet and continue into the box, and after Casillas dispossessed him fairly, he falls over like a diving, sneaky little **** that he is.Well idk what the usual policy is
but puyol made a deliberate attempt of sweeping robben off his feet
robben was just able to jump over it
that was their first world cup victory....Holland deserved it more tbh Spain has already won before
Holland should listen to Sergio.
Yes you can.You can't give advantage and a foul. It's one or the other.
It's about the intention.I thought he should have been sent off but he hardly touched him and anyway his reaction was after Van Bommel went studs first over his foot.
If Iniesta should have been sent off than Van Bommel had to too.
I don't remember Sneijder making any foul that deserved a red card.Sneijder studs up against Busquests = red
His intention was the ball, it was unlucky for the Spanish guy, but it wasn't a red especially since he had no prior offenses.De Jong Karate Kid 3 audition = red
Maybe. But seeing as he sent of Heitinga for no reason, that kind of evens it out.Van Bommel's 1,000,000 fouls = red
The first one was Robben's own fault, the second one wasn't. Puyol was piggy back riding him by force.Anyway, Robben should have scored twice. If Holland want to blame someone blame him.
Maybe, but this game didn't go the way it should've.Best team won.
Then you think the guy from Urugay should've gotten a red card for kicking a dutch defender in the face by accident?Reckless play still warrants a red card, even if the intention was for the ball.
You can't just let your foot fly out wherever.
It's still a foul and Puyol still should've gotten his second yellow card.Robben was given the chance to score, through his own honest decision to stay on his feet and the ref giving advantage. And he messed it up. Puyol was on the floor by the time he was in the box.
Actually, he definitely should have, but he didn't.Then you think the guy from Urugay should've gotten a red card for kicking a dutch defender in the face by accident?
No, it doesn't work that way.
You have got to be joking O: i thought they had won it ~3-4 times
And no insekt, Spain has never won the World Cup, they've had less World Cup success than Holland.
