Yes, Girelli must have had some issue if not even subbed in. Though I thought Italy was well coached and performed well as a team but the Dutch just more talented in the end. Expect them to be better in 4 years even if possibility they don't make it to the final 8.

So I guess GMs will have to add "no running with the bulls" into contracts!"

What a day for sports in england

1st you had the Silverstone formula 1

2nd you had the longest final in men's Wimbledon history. What a match....

And lastly the final of the cricket world cup. England looked gone with 3 balls to spare but what will go down in history as the "hand of God" happened, which sent the game into OT where England won on the final ball...

Well done UK...

Was going to do plenty of yard work after Joker/Fed match but now not enough time to do plenty, a little is it! MrsM even got into the match in the last set! 2 hour 2 minute 5th set!

Most clutch outfield cricket catch of all time? - ESPN Video

New Zealand's Lockie Ferguson scampered in from the boundary to take an incredible front diving catch for the wicket of England captain Eoin Morgan in the World Cup final.

Wish I understood cricket but seems this monkey too old to learn new tricks!

That Ben Stokes 2 that turned into a 6 on 3rd to last ball was freakish.

No way England would have won had that not happened.

You could try and simulate the same thing a million times over and not get the same result...

Ben Stokes, crickets version of the hand of God.

Unfreakinreal...

And that tennis match. Fed played like someone 10 years his junior out there...

Just wow...

Stokes hadn't crossed the crease for the 2nd run when the ball hit his bat for those extra four runs, so instead of 6 runs being scored from that incident it was only 5..

The black caps potentially have a case here and could argue that they were robbed of the world cup...
