Netherlands v Denmark World Cup 14/6/2010
| Netherlands | Denmark |
|---|---|
| Simon Poulsen (og 46′) | |
| Dirk Kuyt (85′) |
Both goals came in the second half after an assured first period of defending by the Scandinavians, who constantly thwarted a Dutch attack which appeared short of ideas without the injured Arjen Robben.
But the resistance was broken less than 60 seconds into the second half, when Robin van Persie’s cross from the left was headed in the wrong direction by Simon Poulsen - he tried to head clear and sent it towards his own goal - and it struck the back of Agger and went in.
