WERE SPAIN THAT BAD IN THEIR OPENER AGAINST HOLLAND.?

Was Spain that bad against Holland in their opening world cup match of 2014? If you look at it it was not a entire one sided game, for forty four minutes the Dutch had difficulty in scoring a goal, it was the Dutch who gave away the first goal of the match to a penalty. For Holland it was their deffenders who made a difference, Daley Blind for those who do not know it is the son of the former Ajax club when they won the Cjhampion League cup in 1993.Danny Blind was their captain It was Daley Blind with his long kick to Robin Van Persie to head the famous opening goal before half time. It was Daley Blind who gave a long kick for Arjeen Robben to control and score the goal. This was the method used by Ajax in 1990s Frank De Boer long kick to Dennis Bergkamp to score then.No tika taka. Actually where did Spain go wrong. one was the error of Iker Casillas in the second Robben goal. Diego Costa failed to impress at all, so did Gerrard Pique make a error for the forth goal. And one man not seen with the ball was Xavi Hernandes, he had about seven touches to the ball in 90 minutes.So even if Iker Casillas has come forward to take the entire blame for the loss it was not fair at all, the strikers and midfielders were unvisible nether was Andres Iniesta or Busquets much in the game.Or for the matter neither was Wesley Sneijder in the game, it was Robin BVan Persie and All Robben.
