could/should have sent off at least one player for a straight legged tackle on Van Persie. But like most English referees, Dean seemed to not like the Dutch player much and he let the Icelandic defenders hit and kick him at will.
Dean thought it necessary to yell at players and join discussions.
The referee team was good at off-side though.
Brilliantly played by the Dutch until they'd hit the post once too often and then they seemed to have lost interest. Unlucky for us viewers that was already in the first half.
