The Dutch, among the favorites to win the trophy after a perfect qualifying campaign and excellent form in their warm-up matches needed an own goal -- initially credited to Simon Poulsen but later amended to team mate Daniel Agger -- just after halftime and a tap-in from Dirk Kuyt in the 85th minute to triumph.
Netherlands rarely moved out of first gear but still had far too much in the tank to leave Denmark trailing as they secured a 2-0 victory in their opening World Cup Group E match at Soccer City. The fans are outstanding as expected, coming in in groups and caught in the world cup photos. The world cup women cheered their team along with the world cup girls blowing vuvuzela and making all sorts of screaming! Really what a scene!
