I know I'm gonna sound biased, but at this point it can only be a Dutch player IMO.
And I'd have to go with either Kuijt, v Bronckhorst or Sneijder.
Probably Kuijt though!
But all that could change tomorrow

Yeah, he was out of this world against Italy. I never saw it in him until last monday to be honest. But damn, did he prove me wrong.
But many Dutch players had an excellent game monday. Quite rare.

Lobont and Buffon should be added into contention.

Does the fact that Sneider's second jaw-dropper came as injury time icing discount him?

Van der Sar.

Sneijder, Van Bronkhorst, Kuyt...as long as it's a Dutch player it doesn't really matter. If I had to highlight any players from the other teams it would all the keepers (excluding Coupet).

Van der Sar.+1
This "bend but not break" Dutch defense would be a "terribly broken" defense if it weren't for Van der Sar.

It's not perfect, but it had a great deal to do with why France did not score more than once, all 4 defenders had several very important moments where they stopped the French attack and the times they failed we still had Van der Sar waiting behind them.
I mean France had so many chances however they were all foiled by the defenders and Van der Sar, the only French goal was from an off-side position.

Sneijder clearly :) he was the brain of his team. other good players of the group van Bronchorst, Kuyt, Buffon and Lobont.
