Austrailia dominating the mid field and Holland relying on a break aways or long hopeful balls.

More urgency from Holland and not before time. Jeepers what a terrible penalty decision.

Australia look spent in all honesty, I can't see this going there way without a ridiculous amount of luck.

Can't watch the second half, because there are too many things recording between 6pm and 7pm. :no
