This game is not just about football history, it is about real history and what went on 60 years ago. It is hard to take the emotions out of this.”
Some strong words from Ruud

Needless to say, I think RvN is being a bit of a crybaby. That was 60 years ago. Now...I vill hear no more insinuations about the German people. Nothing bad happened. Sie werden sich hinsetzen. Sie werden ruhig sein. Sie werden nicht beleidigen Deutschland.
...uh, is that a beer hall?
Oh yes, Munich is renowned for its historic beer halls.

It's not really new news. The Dutch have always thought of the Germans as huge rivals both on and off the field, partially because of what happened in the war. There has always been a sense of resentment towards the Germans, and any opportunity to play them is looked at from a historical standpoint as well.

Well it won't do much to silence those who say he scores too much inside the six-yard box... but for the rest of us it was gold. :)
