It was a historic result because ended a 30-year wait for a victory over Italy. It's true that the first goal was gotten in off-side by Van Nistelrooy (a severe referee error) but Netherlands was already at time the best team in field.The second goal started from a corner against Netherlands. A perfect crossfield ball to Kuyt whose header was spectacularly ended by Sneijder inside Buffon's near post.Italy tried to recover on the second half but as Roberto Donadoni said «it was definitevely a bad night» and several chances to recover one goal were waisted.

    Netherlands bank drops "Piglet" mascot to atract muslims
    2008-02-25 06:37:00
    Knorbert the piglet has been dropped as the mascot of Fortis Bank after it decided to stop giving piggy banks to children for fear of offending Muslims.The decision has been viewed in the Netherlands as the ritual slaughter of a popular pig by political correctness. To some, it is the latest sign of uncertainty in Europe’s most tolerant country about how far it should go to accommodate the sensitivities of minorities. It comes as the country is braced for a backlash against the plans of Geert Wilders, a right-wing politician, to release a critical film about the Koran.Knorbert was culled after seven years as the Fortis mascot. A spokesman told the Dutch media that “Knorbert does not meet the requirements that the multicultural society imposes on us”.Via Infidels are cool

    A1GP: Team Netherlands Prview
    2008-01-17 11:08:00
    On a revised Taupo circuit in New Zealand, host of the fifth round of the A1GP World Cup of Motorsport 2007/08 A1 Team Netherlands aims to kick off the new year well with renewed energy. Last year Jeroen Bleekemolen finished in fourth on a then still brand new circuit.During the winter break of a month both A1 Team Netherlands team principal Jan Lammers and driver Jeroen Bleekemolen have not sat still. Together with Bleekemolen Lammers took victory during the Winter Endurance Championship at Zandvoort and they also secured a podium finish at the Dubai 24 Hours.Following last year’s race it was decided to revise the track lay out to create more overtaking opportunities. Turn 12 was a fast flowing corner taken in fourth gear at about 190 km/h last season, now this corner has been changed into a sharp 90-degree right hander, reducing the speed quite a bit.Jeroen Bleekemolen; “It feels good to be back in Taupo. Last year we were on the pace here, so we should be able to start with a solid base I think. If we are able to improve further from there everything should work out fine. 2008 started off well with a second place at the Dubai 24 Hours. Let’s hope that this is going to be a very nice year and that we will secure many good results in A1GP. With regards to the Championship we must have a good weekend to stay within reach of the leaders. So we know what we have to do. One corner was changed which will make the races more interesting I think. There is more room for overtaking now, so this should create more spectacle.”Arie Luyendyk jr; “ I looking forward to the A1GP event in Taupo, It will be nice to get on the new circuit. Looking over the data and hearing how the car performed last year I'm very optimistic come the rookie sessions tomorrow. The track here is quite narrow and short compared to many of the other race tracks, this may be positive in the way that I will be able to turn more laps than at previous events. The only difference from last year an

    After about 2 hours on 3 different trains (alone) and 1 hour on a bus (with Yasu) we arrived at Kansai Airport. I am writing this on my hotpink keitai (cellphone) while we are waiting to board the KLM plane (see picture). That's where I'll be spending the next 12+ hours :(.

    Delft - Nice little city in the Netherlands
    2007-11-11 10:12:43
    This is a view of one of the many canals in Delft.I was never a sports fanatic. Used to play some tennis, and I still do, but as a complete amateur ;). My boyfriend however is very active with aswell tennis as badminton. This weekend he had a tennis tournament in the city of Delft. I tagged along, not to watch him win the 3rd (Congratulations, sayang!) place in the tournament, but to make pictures of the city. It was beautiful weather. Since it was on a saturday, it was very crowded and some places I couldn't reach very well, since there was a antique market going on all day. Managed to make some nice shots though. You can watch them all here. Have fun!Rick© Copyright // Rick Wezenaar Photography ~ All rights reserved
