Netherland move to Finals after 32 years

This is the first time in 32 years that Netherlands has entered into the World Cup finals. It was an inevitable win against Uruguay whom they literally thrashed with a 3-2 win. It was Sneijder’s day as he scored his 5th World Cup goal and the other scores of the team included Giovannin, as well as Robben.

It was definitely a tough fight, but the Dutch seemed to have overcome all matters that were complicated to move on to the finals. Sneijder said “It was a tough fight and towards the end we complicated matters. Sunday we play in the World Cup finals. I have to get used to it.”

In the 18th minute of the game against Uruguay Van Bronckhorst scored the first goal for his team with a 35 meter yard shot. However Uruguay wasn’t to give up so early and the first equalizer was scored by Forlan who was still sore from his thigh injury.

The Dutch then got into attacking mode after half time and then the other two goals were scored by Sneijder and Robben. Although Uruguay scored in the injury time, it was not good enough to help them win. They finally succumbed to the Dutch aggressive which completely put them under pressure.

After their win the Dutch team then got back to the field and celebrated with a lot of cheer and dance along with around 1000 oranje clad fans who cheered them up further more with a lot of beating of the drums. The chanting was rhythmic and a complete celebration especially when the fans kept up their teams spirit by shouting out loud “Holland! Holland! Holland!”
