was impartial throughout, except on one occassion when Robben was pulled by Puyol, Puyol should have shown 2nd yellow card ( red) and should have sent him back after awarding free kick to Netherlands, apart from that he was fair, Dutch played very rough football, and referee was struggling to keep the match flowing in a smooth way, afterall he is a human being with such fast pace of football some errors will happen, but Puyol case was exceptional
