Van Gaal: No one would have dreamed Spain rout

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Louis van Gaal admitted he never even dreamed that Netherlands were capable of utterly humiliating Spain 5-1 in Friday's Group B opener. Xabi Alonso's penalty gave Vicente del Bosque's men the lead after 27 minutes but an incredible Robin van Persie header levelled the score before the break. The Manchester United striker netted once more in the second half in between two Arjen Robben goals while Stefan de Vrij bundled another over the line as the Dutch ran riot against La Roja. And after the match Van Gaal admitted that it was a result that no one would have seen coming. "The best moment was on the pitch. Everyone was so happy on the field. No one dared to dream this," he told NOS. "I never thought it would go like this. After the penalty from Spain I thought 'will it be a night like this? That the world champions would win like that?'.
