Spain don't lose leads. They score early, then they pass and pass and pass until the match ends 1-0 ... except for today. Because today is apparently the Netherlands' day.
Arjen Robben stuns Spain
Sup Arjen Robben?
This, by the way, is the second assist of the day for Daley Blind. He also played the ball for Robin van Persie’s absolutely insane header. But, once again, this is more about the finish than the pass. That’s just a gorgeous cutback from Robben, and it’s hilarious that Spain let it happen. Everyone knows he’s going to shoot on his left foot. Why are you biting hard on his right fake?
Also, talk about vindication for Louis van Gaal. His decision to play Robben as a striker has been met with all kinds of skepticism, and for good reason. He’s not a versatile striker, nor has he played in the position very often, but this was a striker’s goal.
