Both of Sergio Romero’s superb saves vs Netherlands
Big Ron Vlaar (yes, Ron Vlaar, the one who plays for Villa!) steps up, but Sergio Romero makes a comfortable save, to immediately put the Dutch under pressure.

New trailer for Messi: The Movie
In case you are unaware, a movie about Messi is coming out and this is the new trailer with English sub titles.
The movie will be part documentary part docudrama. What can’t be deciphered from the trailer is how much of the movie will be taken by the rather cheesy looking docudrama, which seems to centre around a young Messi dealing with his small stature.
On the documentary side, there are plenty of interviews with Messi’s mentors and colleagues, including Johan Cruyff, Andres Iniesta and Javier Mascherano.
Hopefully, the movie’s focus will leans more towards documentary, in which case it might be pretty decent.
