This is just disastrous for Holland. Not like they're out of it but even getting 4 points off of Portugal and Germany will be difficult.

It was a handball. Fourth win ref has missed. The Dutch's finishing has been poor, but stuff like that makes this unbearably frustrating.

i agree

they sucked dick at finishing and were incredibly unlucky, but goddamn they got raped on handballs

The Dutch had their chances. Having to appeal to the refs is pathetic for the Oranje. Dreadful performance in front of goal

Netherlands are in trouble. They better hope Germany steamrolls the group.

Ballack's a douche to begin with, but it's pretty funny to see him really, really, really trying to conceal his happiness with the Netherlands loss.

one mistake is OK, but a handfull is pretty bad, especially one crucial/obvious one at the end

I was hoping the Dutch would play Germany for their 3rd game, that way Germany would have 6 points already and would sit players with cards/injury.

But after the next slate of games each team could very well have 3 points. That would be incredibly interesting.

I think the most realistic outlook for the Dutch is to have Germany beat Portugal, Portugal then beat Denmark, while the Dutch tie Germany, and beat Portugal.

Germany: 7 points
Dutch: 4 points
Portugal: 3 points
Denmark: 3 points

He can't help himself.

Nederland need to beat Portugal and hope for a draw/win over Germany and hope 4 points is enough to advance.

The Dutch are their own worst enemies always have been. I had them winning this game; however, the scoreline shouldn't just flat out shock anyone. They are cooked. Time for Clockwork Orange to re-tool for Euro 2016.
