2014 World Cup

Apparently he is nursing a calf injury. So rough him up a bit.

And thought the PK for Dutch was clear, even though it wasn't as severe as Robben made it out to be. Definitely stomped on his toe, and got the leg in there, so Robben was going down. But he didn't have to sell it like he had been shot.

Does Cameron push out right or sit in front of Besler and Gonzalez?
