One More for The Fatherland

Fitting that on this Father’s Day in Amerika, the boys from The Fatherland will be in action on the pitch.

However, the more intriguing matchup on the day is The Netherlands v. The Portugal. Robin v. Ronaldo. Clockwork Oranje is not doing so hot. This could be it for them. Such a schande.

Oh, yeah. Happy Father’s Day out there, if you’re observing it. Here’s to many pari-mutuel gifts for Dad!
