One of the Most Entertaining Wrestling matches in History

Dutch players can be happy cuz Pepe didn’t played

12:36 epic moment in this match

Ronaldo was happy he got out early, very dangerous game 🥺

Why the title says all goals & highlights?? It should be changed to all fouls & highlights😂

This is the match where Pepe got his inspiration to become the best fighter on the football pitch.

i will never ever forget watching this game. i was 11 years old and my dad was watching this upstairs on some really shitty projection tv and i was downstairs playing habbo hotel. i kept hearing my dad screaming early on in the game so i decided to go upsairs and watch it because i had remembered the sadness of two years earlier in 2004 with portugal vs greece. what i ended up seeing probably changed my life. it was this insane tussel between players i had grown to know against also dutch players i had learned of online through old websites like psoccer. it was the craziest thing i had ever seen on tv and as time had gone on i continued to remember how crazy it was. portugal continued to win extremely nail biting games and it was so entertaining and also so stressful. by the time portugal vsed france i could not watch any longer and they lost. the feeling 10 years later in 2016 when they won, when eder of all people scored the goal. when he was subbed in i said to my mom, omg he sucks fk, i remember it so clearly, and he scored. my god it was the best feeling in the world.

The Dutch started it when first van Bommel tackled Ronaldo from behind, and a few minutes later Boulahrouz attacked Cristiano, extending his leg at Ronaldo's waist level and kicking him in the thigh with all the power. And for that, Boulahrouz only got a yellow card, which was ridiculous. Raising your leg to waist level and kicking it around the waist and thigh of the opposition player, should immediately be a red card, period. This violent foul shows that the Dutch wanted to eliminate Cristiano from the very beginning because Cristiano was already, back then, the biggest threat to them and Portugal's biggest star. It's clear as day. And the Dutch managed to do it because Cristiano eventually had to leave the field very early in the first half, with an injury. So for me, everything that Portugal did afterwards was justified. It was the Dutch who started it, they eliminated Ronaldo due to a disgusting foul, so the Portuguese responded. The referee was at fault, he made a huge mistake - he should have immediately given Boulahrouz a red card for this disgusting attack on Ronaldo. It would be a clear signal to both teams that there would be no tolerance for any harsh fouls, and then neither team would make such a mess out of this match.

Some of these comments are disgraceful. Cristiano was literally in tears because he had to leave the pitch, he desperately wanted to play, but he couldn't continue, the Dutch injured him with this violent, disgusting attack! It should have been a straight red card for Boulahrouz, period. The Dutch started it all, so I don't feel sorry for them AT ALL. Portugal had a right to respond. I remember watching it, I was so pissed at the Dutch and the ref, Cristiano was and is my favorite player, and the way they attacked him was very dangerous and disgusting!

Thank you for showing entire highlights, not just the tackles, fouls and cards. Because I watched that game and definitely remember there was more than violence to it, plenty of skill on display and chances for both teams.

alguien viene del video de emanhavok

1:30 straight red, 5:27 straight red

Man… I really loved Maniche! Such a shame he never became anything on club-level!

1:35 in today’s game this would be direct red, weird how much has changed with var

Portugal got away with alot in this game. But watching two teams try kill eachother on the pitch is so entertaining to watch.

Esa patada contra cr7 no es amarilla es carcel

5:27🟥

Super strange game. By dropping van Nistelrooy before the game, the Dutch had planned their way out.

They were competing for the best yellow Card 🟨

FIFA: Pick a card Ref: hold my beer

12:25 cuando estás por patear y tenés lag

today 14 years ago~

Para la historia del Futbol gran asaña de 🇵🇹

Damn Kuyt was laser fuckin focused on scoring a goal.....Respect. & that shot towards the end w/ Boularouz Deco, & Van Bronckhorst is iconic

Esse foi um dos jogos mais violentos de todas as copas. Parecia Libertadores. O jogo teve um festival de violência e cartões vermelhos e amarelos.

The most beautiful game ever

Games back then was more gruesome than now mon. You are a legend if you still watching this

No recordaba este partido...como se pegaron😆😆 en el futbol de hoy hubieran terminado 8 por lado😵😵

Lembro de ter assistido a essa partida aqui em casa, fiquei impressionado com as estatísticas dos cartões. Agora imagina essa partida hoje toda hora parando por causa do VAR?? Ia ter uns 15 de acréscimo em cada tempo. Galvão resumiu bem o jogo numa fala dele: "ô jogo maluco!"

Came here after Argentina and Netherland fight scene fifa world cup 2022

Figo, ronaldo, deco, what a team that was!

5:23 damn that kick was so powerful it made the quality drop lol

Both teams were well organized and full of talented .

The referee was a disgrace. At 1:34 he should have given a red card, not only for the seriousness of the foul, but considering that it was Netherland's second foul in just 7 minutes of play. It was predictable that the game would be violent. At 9:35 Deco's foul was even predicted by the commentators, the Dutch team was supposed to deliver the ball to the Portuguese or kick it out as fair play and they simply went ahead with the attack. The Dutch team abused all the time under the benevolence of the referee and the Portuguese were forced to respond with the same aggressiveness to win the game.

Man, this was football. Violent and entertaining not the garbage we have to watch today. 😢

Felipao merecia ter ganho um titulo com essa selecao

Can you imagine if Pepe had been played this game 😱😱😱

Nesse dia o bem venceu mais uma vez!

Van Persie was a great player, but these years Nistelrooy was in his prime bro...

Battle of Nuremberg

Don't worry portugal you did an amazing job

This game was a slaughter

Best games i ever watched, suspense until the end.PT

Siempre van encontra de Cristiano(como paso en la euro 2016 que lo lesionaron), una amarilla en el minuto 1 sobre el, desde joven causando miedo a los contrincantes El Comandante

Saw post on Instagram and came to watch the highlights 😍...

La magia de los mundiales que hermoso !

Netherlands at the world cup. Never a dull moment

The cleanest game in history

the most violent match i have ever seen

A culpa do jogo ser ruim é do juiz. Deveria ter expulso o jogador da Holanda no primeiro lance em Cristiano Ronaldo. Os jogadores iriam pensar 2x em cometer faltas. Como não expulsou enxergaram oportunidade de transformar o jogo em várzea.

Quem merecia levar 16 cartões amarelos e 4 vermelhos era esse árbitro que deixou o jogo ficar assim fora do controle e tendo pancadaria pra todo lado!

Partido llena de pelea y sangre

This was my first match i saw in facebook and this is how my football journey started

Dirty game. Dutch were robbed a two penalties. But still they deserved to lose. They played with desperation.

There are not enough man in today's football for us to see something close to the level of this game

i loved this game

CR7 tinha 21 anos e Felipão técnico nessa copa. E Robben tinha cabelo

People complain about how the ref lost control of this match, but most of these cards are totally justified. Hell I saw 2 challenges that should be reds he only gave yellows for.

el partido mas violento que eh visto. It is the most violent game that I have seen.

Watching this game live in 2006 was so funny

Dutch strategy : shoot outside the box

Muito boa vingança extraordinária quando Ronaldo estava magoado e triste e também fiquei triste ao ver o estado dele naquele momento

Who watching in 2024?

La batalla de Nuremberg 😎

Netherlands had many chances in the second half. If Van Basten had put Van Nistelrooy as a sub in Kuyt's place he could had easily scored one goal out of these chances.

remember that on that day it was my mom's birthday and we saw that game in a real restaurant that was the most litigious game ever.

What a game

This looks like a cartoon. This is metal

Essa camisa da holanda é muito linda

Eles começaram eles levam sem parar e mesmo assim

imagine this game with VAR

Me encantó el trabajo de los porteros wooow

You can already see that a lot of difference has crept in between they way they played back then and the way they play now. They used to love to try it from a distance, which is unfortunately less so now. Also players were not so afraid to get dirty and physical as today, these days you only see ballerinas on the field.

Pepe: whats this? Disneyland!?

Fair play at it's finest

A Holanda achou um adversário pra bater neles também, pois em 2010 só bateram na Espanha que jogava o fino da bola.

Com narração do Galvão ainda. Bom demais

Most brutal match in World Cup history. 😬😬😬

epic match! i watched it on large screen projector....liked it so much at that time also. the fouled cr7 soo badly. that time i supported fr dutch. but now i support portugal fr cr7. we didnt need wresting at that time, huh!? :p

Man, I miss this level of aggression on the field so much. I was 18 and had just left for college. As a lifelong Dutch supporter, I was gutted they went out cause it was a phenomenally talented team but the game was incredibly entertaining. I keep coming back to watch this every few months to remind myself about what entertaining football used to mean. Also, way too many Pepe comments. Either the thread has a massive number of tweens or folks have forgotten what the real tough guys on a pitch were like. They didn’t need to whine, moan and throw in a stupidly cheap tackle. Just played it hard and smart.

was the best team in portugal

Ramos would've been eagerly waiting to join 😂

Who needs ufc ? Lol bloody game

Dutch player's old habits, did same with Argentina this world cup

1:40 it was at this movement he knew he fkd up

Van Basten arrogante e prepotente !!! .. deixou de levar Bergkamp pra Copa no último gás ali do craque, e já na Copa deixou Van Nistelrooy no banco o jogo todo por pura incompetência e por birrinha, preferiu Kuijt e Vennegoor que juntos não chegavam aos pés do Van gol, o resultado foi uma eliminação nas oitavas, levou fumo, bem feito !!!

This is not a football match this is a fight

Cách hát của Phúc hiện đại, tinh tế và mang hơi hướng Kpop nhưng lại rất ấm áp, dịu dàng...1 ca khúc tuyệt vời

Even the best teams in the world will resort to kicking the shit out of the opposing best player to get the upper hand
