    Romanians usually have way better hands than their keeper showed there

    Romania are dogshît but still potentially dangerous being only a goal down.

    Dutch have been thoroughly wasteful in terms of the chances they created and not taking them. Should easily be 3 or 4 nil up…. 67% possession according to one app.

    If any team can nick something from this it is the Romanians

    As ridiculous as it looks, the fella lying behind the wall does serve a purpose.

    Romanian's aren't as good as the heady days of 98 with all the bleached blonde heads.

    Nobody will be losing sleep over playong the Dutch. Any decent well set up team would nullify any threat

    Hmm, still the standard is not particularly eye catching.

    Underwhelming from most teams in this knockout phase.

    I have high hopes for Turkey later.

    Romanian fans showing their class…..firing shoes and bottles onto the pitch with the Dutch attacking.

    3-0 is a fair reflection you have to say, might have been a couple more.

    Giving out about a pair of runners now.

    With regards this tournament, I can’t recall a poorer standard.

    Who knows, last 8 might produce classics

    First two minutes of this are already better than the entire ninety between Belgium and France.
