Best luck to the Flying Dutchmen in the World Cup final. In Madison Square
Garden, in 1978, I watched their agonizingly close defeat by Argentina.
They lost 3–1 after two extra time Argentinian goals. Dutch champion Rensenbrink
struck the Argentinian goalpost in the last minute of regular time, with
the score 1–1. I watched it with a French-speaking Belgian, but he was entirely Dutch for the occasion. As was I. Lang leve de Nederlandse!
