Smile! We're In!

 
At a Beirut pub, somewhere in downtown Beirut, the Dutch anxiously awaited the verdict; Were we going to meet our demise, just like 4 years ago? Was it going to be an early ending of a World Championship? The Spaniards are an opponent not to be taken for granted. Actually, they’re an opponent we kind of fear. So we went without a lot of hope. After all . . . we hold the record for playing the most World Cup finals without ever winning the tournament.





And indeed. 1:0 for the Spaniards. Well, we sort of expected that.
 
Oh. 1:1. Well, that is at least an honorable defeat.
1:2? Is this possible? Will it last? They just need one goal, and we're back to nothing.
 
1:3. Wait a minute, this is looking better. We actually might win this.
 
1:4 Are you kidding me? We ARE going to win this !
