Holland 2 - Cote d'Ivoire 1


Is this Robben or Van Persie? I get them confused.

The Dutch National Diving Team won their second consecutive meet at the Gottlieb-Daimler Natatorium in Stuttgart. The entire team contributed to the victory but special citations are due to Van Bommel for his double back pike inward in the 25th minute; Arjen Robben´s triple tuck in the 33rd and Van Persie´s forward one and a half pike in the 65th. The Green Cobra especially admired Van Persie´s dive as he was shouldered from the side but still courageously dove forward. Concentration is king in world class diving and the Dutch have it in spades. Hup, hup, hup!
