1 - 3

The Dutch soccer team lost in the quarterfinals against Russia, 1-3. They were definately the stronger team; Guus Hiddink did a tremendous job in coaching the Russian team. For the 22 members of the Dutch team, the 80,000 Dutch fans who traveled to Switzerland, ass well as the millions of supporters here, the dream of the European Championships is over. In a few days all the orange will be gone from the streets. It was fun while it lasted. It was extra fun, because we actually seemed to have a chance at the cup. I guess my favorite now is Russia, with their Dutch coach :-)
