"Superb Dutch floor Italians"


"Netherlands outplayed world champions Italy and romped to a 3-0 win in the first clash of the heavyweights at Euro 2008. A controversial goal from Ruud Van Nistelrooy, a superbly executed volley by birthday boy Wesley Sneijder and a third goal by Giovanni van Bronckhorst late in the game sealed a comfortable victory."

Gio van Bronckhorst celebrates his goal against Italy

that was the report on soccernet. WOO HOO! i watched the game last night, and i couldn't believe my holland can actually win the latest world cup champions italy. and its an impressive scoreline too! hahaha.. so happy with the Dutch team's performances, their counter attacks were brilliant, and dirk kuyt was fantastic, providing 2 good assists, he usually wasn't so good at liverpool. haha.

goals from van nistelrooy, sneijder and van bronckhorst. all nice goals! especially the 2nd, wah, how he hit the ball on the volley like that, and managed to beat buffon! buffon is the best goalkeeper in the world, and the dutch team managed to put 3 balls past him! miracle man. really cannot believe it! haha..

so now its, go ESPANA! and GO NEDERLAND!
