Sneijder gets credit for first Dutch goal
Saturday 3 July 2010
Wesley Sneijder has been credited
with the Netherlands' first goal in the 2-1 quarterfinal
win over Brazil and shares the lead atop the World Cup
scoring chart. Sneijder's cross in the 53rd minute glanced
off Felipe Melo's head into an unguarded goal in Friday's
match and was announced as an own goal by the Brazil
midfielder. FIFA says the cross was goal bound and should
be credited to Sneijder, whose 68th-minute header then
sealed the victory for the Dutch. Sneijder now has four
goals in five matches. A FIFA panel of experts analyzes
matches and adjudicates on disputed goals.
