Here’s a little gift from the world cup for you all from SpitsNieuws (The Dutch equivalent to the Daily Mail on Ketamine).

Holland are through to the semi-final to play either Ghana or Uruguay. Exciting stuff for a Dutchman like me. Holland beat Brazil 2-1 in the quarter finals of this world cup; the first time they beat them since 1974.

My English family are supporting us since their shock defeat against Germany. Hopefully the final will be a Holland – Germany grudge match so my family can feel justified that Germany’s either soundly defeated or that they lost from the current world champions in their 4-1 debacle loss.
