Video: Superb animation captures the utter uselessness of Argentina v Holland perfectly

Very, very well done by Tim Bradford and the folks at the excellent When Saturday Comes.

Very, very well done by Tim Bradford and the folks at the excellent When Saturday Comes.

In a World Cup blessed with many magic matches, the clash between Argentina and Holland stuck out like a sore thumb. Yes it was a World Cup semi-final so tensions were high but it really was as turgid a game as we can remember, all 120 long minutes of it.

Heck, even the penalties were a bit crap.

As you might imagine nobody has produced a highlights video of the game but what has appeared is a frankly genius animation from Tim Bradford of Wobbly Films.

Posted on the When Saturday Comes YouTube channel last night, it is just about perfect in the level of excitement and thrills offered by the game.
