@GLHR I couldn't agree with you more: This is one of those moments that speaks thousand words. As much as I love Holland, I was not that upset once they lost to Spain, as Spain deserved to win. But the 1974 and 1978 losses is still hard to swallow, specially the 78 one, when Holland was within seconds of winning the W.Cup. After Argentina's third goal, I just went to bed. Still after all these years, I can't bring myself to watch that game again.
@Resenbrink : I made a comment on "Dick Nanninga" video clip that should Rensenbrink's shot in the last minute instead of hitting the post, had touched the net, Holland was within seconds of winning the W. Cup. That is what I meant. I forgot that I was commenting on a different video clip. Anyway thanks for your reminder.
@14mooler - Oh ok, but Rensenbrink himself says that it was really only the smallest of chances and it was lucky he even managed to hit the post with that shot. I think he says this is the book "Brillant Orange: The Neurotic Genius of Dutch Soccer" - if you haven't read the book it's a great read for all of us who love the Dutch national side.
@Resenbrink : Rensenbrink did the best he could as he stretched his left foot to touch the ball. I think he was unlucky not being able to score. As for the book, unfortunately I live in Los Angeles, and despite being a member of LA public library, I have not being able to get such books as they are not available even in book stores. When I travel to London or Holland, then I would be able to get them. Until then, I educate myself by reading the likes of "World Soccer" or reading on internet.
@14mooler - I live in Australia. I bought the book over the internet - anyone can do it. If you're a fan of Holland then I recommend the book - it talks alot about the great Dutch sides of the 70's.
@Resenbrink : Thanks for your advice. I checked "Amazon.com", and it is available. Let me in return provide you with a good source in case you are not aware of him: His name is 'Ernst Bo u,w,e,s", and there are about 149 articles from him; all about the Dutch players and the teams. You can find them in "Esp,n,s,o,c,c,e,r,net.com", under all columnists section. For some reason, I was not able to post the 2 names in a coherent way; thus I separated the letters with comma.

I don't think so and would have written 00 instead of 94.
