Been the game of the tournament so far, finally some skill!

1st goal was offside but theres no doubt Holland deserve to be infront.

I totally agree here. The second goal was brilliant.

I think it was fitting that Van Bronkhorst got that last goal. for me him and Boulahdrouz (sp?) have been the best players on the pitch for Holland.

In a way i feel the result is very harsh on italy, they've had some very close chances but Holland are very deserving of the win.

Sneijder and Van der Vaart were also quite good, IMHO, but Van Bronckhorst was the best player on the pitch by far.

I was a bit disappointed by the Italian midfield. Aside from a few good passes by Pirlo it produced very little.

I think that was predominantly down to the undervalued de jong and Engelaar.

Ole ole oleee!

Before the game I was glad that De Jong played instead of De Zeeuw. Very surprising.

The first goal wasn't offside. An Italian defender was lying down close to the goal.

Great game. The Dutch were by far the best team on this tournament.

He was well off the pitch, if he's not on the field of play he's not playing someone onside.

It´s a stupid rule, but ynnek is right. Van Nistelrooy didn´t know this btw, but who cares, we beat Italy 3-0!
