What's this, a "highly respected" baldy English referee called Howard Webb failing to recognise the difference between a yellow and red card? In a final, you say? Can't quite think where I may have seen that before. Hmm, let me think...hmm....hmm...HMMM...OH YEAH.

You have to admire his initial restraint. I wouldn't have bothered with answering a couple of questions first but instantly planted a wet one on her she would have bragged about to our grandkids.

Dirk Kuyt is right to point the finger of blame at Howard Webb for Iniesta's goal. If he'd given out red cards when they were warranted, the game would have been abandoned long before extra time.

Anyway, pleased Spain won. The thought of Khalid Boulahrouz and Andre Ooijer as World Cup winners was always a hard sell for me.

Except for the comedy value, of course.

I just didn't want Sneijder getting the 'Grand Slam' of medals. It'd just be too much

...then again, Djimi Traore has a Champions League medal :|

I didn't want them to win for all the thuggery throughout the tournament. Van Bommel could and perhaps should have gotten a red in every game!

Van Bommel's cynicism was so shameless and obvious that my annoyance has almost crossed over into admiration these past few weeks. You have to grudgingly tip your hat to him for somehow managing to turn kicking, hacking, diving and just generally getting away with murder into an art form. :|

The Dutch have been very classy since the final...

So now that the World Cup is over, I can go back to concentrating on Liverpool's attempts to finish 8th and qualify for the Europa League *le sigh*

Awwwww the kiss was so cute i love them so much they make an amazing couple and look so in love
