Arjen Robben is a world class player so this is meant as no disrespect but has any opposing coach or player ever noticed that he only uses his left foot? Plus, he favors one move: cutting back across the top of the box, from right to left.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it I guess since Robben just used that famous foot and his patented move to give Netherlands a 1-0 lead in the 18th minute.
Three Slovakian defenders, including Durica sporting a mohawk, were no match as he pulled it across then shot it across his body and past Mucha who was caught a bit flat-footed.
1-0 Netherlands in the 22nd minute and they flashed a stat after the goal that the Dutch are 17-2-3 all-time in the World Cup when they score first. Their last loss when they scored first was in 1978 to Scotland.
Slovakia will need to hang on and push for a tying goal or else like Mexico and England yesterday, they're in danger of being stomped.
