I don't think Van Persie touched the ball. Therefore, I don't think the goal was illegal.
Nonetheless,
I apologize for an awefull game from the side of The Netherlands (amazing goal from Forlan, in contrary to the lucky hit from Van Bronckhorst).
I think the game was yours, but, judging from the players separately, I think The Netherlands should have gone through to the final.
I think the world should hold their breath for next WC for Uruguay. I think they're bound to do big things then.
As much as anyone else (as multiple final-loser) I realize that's not a relief at this moment.
Still, I wish anyone in Uruguay the best. Just keep in mind you were great in this particular game
