The action prior to the final pass of the decisive goal was clearly offside. Thanks mr. Howard Webb for robbing our WC victory. Bloody numbskull.

The BBC repeated this goal numerous times and no way was it offside so Mr Webb and his assistants weren't wrong at all in awarding it. Please get your facts right before slagging off officials who had an extremely difficult game to control. If Holland had played the ball instead of the man during the game they would've won, end of story. Bad losers the Dutch! I wanted Spain to win because they entertain, they don't bore the audience. You can slag off England if you like and yes, it would be justified but please don't slag off the only referee in the World that can deal with dirty players...and that's Howard Webb.

Janey you're referring to the pass that resulted in the goal. That's not the one I mean. Instead I mean the pass prior to the final pass. That one was offside, I've seen it with my own eyes, not even needed replays for that. As such the goal is illegal and penalties should have been taken. Furthermore Iniesta kicking one of Oranje's players should have been rewarded with a red card as well. It once again shows that referees aren't capable of whistling clean matches. It's time for Blatter to stop being ignorant. Today he once again said that he's only going to talk about technical aids but that there's no way they will be implemented. I can't wait until he's replaced by a more capable person who loves football instead of money. Sadly from history we know this is just not going to happen.

If it's any consolation diamania..we in England aren't fans of Blatter either. Put it this way; if England get to stage the World Cup in 2018 I'll show my a*se down this street lol.

Dude i watch the replay only once when the match are played evev that they show this only once i think this is somethink fishy.I will tell u what i saw:i can't remember who fall on the ground from Holland(i think it was Roben but i'm not sure and this is not so important)but on replay they pause and put that ofside line when the guy was on the ground and the one who make a pass stil don't try to kick it.After that it happen fast but u can see the Holland player who was on the ground don't even try to get up ,he just trow him self forward to make that ofside trap,and after he trow him self come the pass.I know everythink happen fast but they can atleast double check it when this is extra time and it happen by this tyni ofsides traps and sh*t.But they don't.This is rlly smell fishy. This is what i think man don't take it personal. Peace out.

I fully agree whit u man.It seems the referees octopus with eurofootbal or some other behind the scenes games was more powerfull than the real octopus. Damn i think i'm gonna stop to watch footbal again,this game became more corupted than ever before.When they can manipulate the bigest footbal event what left to the others not so important.

Sepp Blatter, chief of the FIFA is corrupt. Bad decisions are removed from match summaries and all bloody technical aids aren't implemented to ensure that Blatter and his mobster friends are capable of changing match results. Also referees from non-football countries are assigned to matches so as to ensure he gets votes for his election. I just can't believe it, why would we even participate if we and other countries are just helping Blatter and his bloody friends to become even more richer. After the WC I am sure south-africa can't find a purpose for those stadiums meaning they've spend over one billion dollar on, NOTHING!

Ofc man like they are saying in ancient Rome "give the people bread and spectacle,and they will be satisfy"Mean time they do a lot of money from that spectacle from bet's and all kind of stuff that suports that show.One bilion for a stadium that's going to be used only once is nothink to them(i'm sure they won't destroy it cuz they will play some matches there from time to time) either way they make a lot more from that. Ofc that chief is corrupted man cuz even now they can control this kind of mistakes(all referess has hadgear,some one even now tell them what to call).That's why they don't want that replay overview,cuz they can't manipulate the game with it. Maybe they need first some guy to hire first specialist in special efects and computer animation :D.

I'm glad you agree with me. Sad thing is that Holland and Belgium are planning on organizing a WC ourselves. This means that we will be expending money on bloody nothing while there is a lot of poverty in Holland and Belgium. Thank you very much stupid Dutch politicians for complying with fifas nazist conditions.

I have rooted for the Oranje and watching the replay, I really don't understand why the call for offside. Iniesta is perfectly onside and the goal is prefectly legitimate. In fact, I find the Dutch play rather a stinker. Those x-rated challenge, especially the kick to the chest of Alonso, is totally anti-soccer.

The PASS before the FINAL PASS, is what I am referring to. It was clearly offside. The pass you were referring to however was indeed onside. All in all, the goal should've been canceled and the goalscorer yellow carded for continuing playing.
