i didn't think the final was that bad at all!

actually i enjoyed it very much. the ref called pretty much every little infraction tho o well, better than non-calls i guess.

the first half wasn't that good i'll admit, so many fouls, so many yellows.

but 2nd half and beyond, spain really impressed me, amazing passing! alot of their first touch traps and control was alittle shaky but for the most part i loved watching them play glad spain won

iniesta is the man!

That ref definitely had a preference for yellows. He seemed like he wanted to give them out to Netherlands for just about anything (although there was plenty that they deserved in the first half).

I was getting tired of seeing Spain players charging after the ref anytime a player went down (even when they would dive).

One of the worst world cup finals I've seen
Ya, as for players charging at the ref, I was amazed! He just kept walking backwards like he was in fear as they shouted at him.

Not a very fun game to watch at all.

2nd half was BETTER yes. Still didn't find it as enjoyable as the other years.

It didn't seem to have the feeling to it this year, idk what it was. I did like that ball though!
