It's nice to see Netherlands continue to strike and work up to the end, even when leading. Unlike Ghana vs US who seemed to just hold the ball, perform fake injuries, and generally do anything to keep the ball out of play. I guess you can't blame Ghana for that, it seems to be the way of the game when time is on your side. But congratulations to NED for performing with class.
