Penalty divides Dutch

AFP, The Hague
Dutch newspapers remained divided Monday on whether Arjen Robben's match-winning penalty against Mexico was "deserved" or “exaggerated" but all praised the Oranje's "miracle" victory.
Seconds before a dramatic end to the game, Bayern Munich star Robben tumbled to the turf after making contact with Mexico defender Rafael Marquez.
Robben has admitted he dived when trying to win a penalty in the first half but insists the late spot kick converted by Klaas-Jan Huntelaar fopr the 2-1 win was justified.
"Robben already deserved a penalty kick earlier in the match, when he was first touched by
Marquez and then brought down by Hector Moreno," populist broadsheet De Tetegraafstated.
"Finally in injury time Robben got his deserved penalty from [ referee Pedro] Proenca and Huntelaar sent the Netherlands to the quarterfinals," itsaid.
"Well deserved, because the Dutch kept footballing while Mexico was merely defending a 1-0 lead," it added.
Centre-left tabloid De Volkskrant who called the win a "miracle escape due to team and fighting spirit" was more guarded.
' Robben was a boxer looking for the knockout blow against a reeling opponent," the paper said.
"Finally, [he] got a desired penalty after a somewhat exaggerated
fall over Marquez's leg," De Volkskrant said.
It eulogised Huntelaar's kick, calling him the "one-man help desk" of the Dutch team.
The progressive NRC Next tabloid called it "The Great Escape’ after the 1963 classic movie, saying Robben's dive was "somewhat theatrical, but it was — if you take the earlier missteps against him into consideration — enough to convince the referee to award the penalty.'
"From hell to heaven in six minutes," said popular daily tabloid Algemeen Dagblad, hailing Huntelaar.
"'King Klaas' stayed as cool as a cucumber in the immense heat," said the paper which added: "From
an almost certain knockout to perhaps world champions."
De Volkskrant criticised coach Louis van Gaal "who clung to a defensive tactic against a not-overly strong Mexico, |a tactic] which at times insulted the expert's eye".
"I was severely irritated with the type of game" the paper quoted Dutch football analyst Jan Mulder telling Belgian sports channel Sporza.
"Now it's going well, but does the team really think they can win the World Cup with this type of system?" he asked.
"In hindsight it perhaps went too well against Spain," whom the Netherlands beat 5-1 in their World Cup opener, De Volkskrant said.
