They say, revenge is a dish best served cold. And boy, did they serve it ...
The Dutch went about doing their business in a clinical manner and drove 5 nails into Spain's coffin. Unfortunately, the match ended as they were serving for the first set.
The Flying Dutchman - Robin Van Persie, started it all with a goal that would've made Denis Bergkamp proud.
But then anything Robin can do, Robben can do better. Both scored 2 goals each and it was heartening to see Robin help Robben wear his captain's armband. A team known for it's self-destructing abilities, the Dutch team of 2014 looks to be a tight knit unit.
They are on the prowl and history shows that they've made it all the way to the semis whenever they've scored 4 goals in a group match.
All the fake diving started by Real Madrid then Barcelona and now followed by Atletico is not helping Spain.
Starting with Casillas and Costa instead of De Gea and Villa proved to be costly to Vincent Del Bosque. Dread to even think what Spain will do to Australia and Chile, next.
The goal by the 'flying Dutchman' was real classic!!!
