Dutch Delight after howler from Poulson

June 14, 2010

Holland 2 Denmark 0 A dull first half from both sides meant that it took a long time for this game to spark into life. Holland have been touted as ‘ones to watch’ like in every World Cup but ‘Oranje’ were definitely missing the pace and incision of Arjen Robben as they found it difficult [...]
