Howard Webb, Michael Mullarkey and Darren Cann worked brilliantly as a team last night.
There was huge tension in the game , right from the start when it became apparent to everyone that the Dutch had a plan.
That was to stop Spain playing their passing game at all costs.The game was close to boiling over a few times , however Howard kept it under control with the correct use of the tools at his dispossal.
He tried his best to let the game flow , however Holland wanted a stop - start match.
Yes , it was a corner , but there is, nearly , a 100yds to travel to the other goal line!
Yes the Red Card was correct for Heitinga , and yes De Jong should have been booked and shown the Red Card earlier , however all other desisions were absolutely spot on.
At the end of the match , the best Team , in football terms , won and the goal was scored by one of the best players in the tournament.
