Interesting statistic that's got me even more happy that van Gaal is Utd's new manager. He's made some great tactical moves (the set-up that stuffed Spain, the late keeper substitution...) and before the tournament I don't think many people would have thought this Dutch team would be a shoot-out away from the final.
The biggest problem when playing Argentina is keeping Messi in check, because when he's on form you only need one minor error and he can get a goal. Last night the Dutch totally kept him at bay. During the entire game he had a grand total of 1 touch inside the Dutch penalty area. The spot-kick at the end.
Shame RVP was off colour and Robben was quiet really. Made for a dull game.Statistics: Posted by KevW — Thu Jul 10, 2014 9:57 am
