Uruguay-Netherlands 2-3
Sneijder: "This is incredible"
Tuesday 6 July 2010
Wesley Sneijder was
happy when he spoke to the Dutch press after the game
against Uruguay, but there was no euphoria. The man
who scored his fifth goal of the tournament knows that
the goal has not yet been achieved. "For that we
would have to win the final, but this is incredible."
"We have had
to fight for hard for it," Sneijder said. "In
the end we got ourselves in some unnecessary trouble.
But we can forget about all that. We're in the final
and that's fantastic."
"I don't yet
fully realize it. It will take some time to sink in."
Sneijder played the
most important final in club football this season, winning
the Champions League with Inter Milan against Bayern
Munich. "Well yes, you can say I'm getting to playing
finals. I shall try to take that experience to this
final and try to share it with my team mates."
And about his goal:
"You have to shoot, otherwise you can not score.
I was a bit lucky, but I'm at five goals now. We can
enjoy this for a short while. A little party, for there
is nothing bigger than the World Cup."
