HALFTIME WHISTLE -
NETHERLANDS - 1
(Robben 18')
SLOVAKIA - 0
Well, after yesterday's two supercharged matches, today's first half felt dull and drawn out. Even the goal scored was a sudden burst of energy from Arjen Robben towards the Slovakian defense and he dodged and turned through 3 defenders and the GK to put the ball in the right corner of the net.
Otherwise, it was dull football. Surprising to see both teams not showing any energy in their play. It's like 2 tired teams content to play out the minutes. There just isn't any sort of momentum in the play yet.
Maybe the Slovaks will come hard at the Netherlands in the second half. Let's wait and see. Bet Angra was bored out of his wits with these 45 minutes.
