As Slovakian defender Martin Skrtel argued with the refs at midfield after an obvious high kick by him, the Dutch restarted quickly with Kuyt receiving it in the box and then laying off for Sneijder, who blasted it into the empty net.
Skrtel was still arguing after the goal and he received a yellow card for his troubles. Dumb decision by him all around and it cost his team dearly.
That was in the 84th minute and it was a great example of how an underdog can't let their guard down for a second since a heavyweight like Netherlands can knock you out with one punch.
2-0 Dutch in the 89th minute.
Last two Slovakian subs: Martin Jakubko and Marek Sapara in with Radoslav Zabavnik and Erik Jendrisek are out.
