The result is out. The friendly between the Netherlands and Australia ended with a draw. One all is the final score. (tag).
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the result. It’s a draw! I had expected no less than a win!
It must be the ground. The very cursed ground. The friendly was played in Rotterdam for crying out loud.
Phillip Cocu suffered an injury in the first half, while Wesley Sneijder and Giovanni van Bronckhorst needed replacing in the second.
I hope all three, especially Sneijder, is alright. According to a poster at Ajaxtalk, Sneijder’s injury looks pretty bad.
Anyway, apart from this match, another Oranje is in action. It’s the under-21 team against Ukraine in the U-21 Euro 2006 final.
One reply on “[804] Of damned Rotterdam!”
Lol, told you so :)
But in all fairness, Holland should have won that match, had it not been for terrific Aus’s goalie.
Holland was a class above Australia, in terms of technical skills and attacking flair.
