Highly talked about as a favorite, though having never won a previous World Cup, the Dutch came onto the pitch with a fervor like non-other this morning in Johannesburg.
It was on an own-goal at the 46' minute, that got the Dutch started and then their second goal at the 85' minute by Dirk Kuyt. Denmark's Simon Poulsen headed in the ball off the back of teammate Daniel Agger.
Denmark did well enough to keep the Netherlands from the free-flowing high scoring team their fans have become accustomed to watching. But those goals are what will define winners over losers. Either way, great early morning soccer.
