So I have a stupid question: If the Dutch national flag is red, white and blue, why is the national team color orange?
Because of our 'founding father', Willem van Oranje (William of Orange), Tele.

Just less than an hour to go, but I want to say that it's very weird that the second and third place in football just don't count at all, while in all other sports and championships the second and third place are also of worth.
But the whole closing ceremony is just failing. As for me I would like to see the best three teams at the end of the final getting their rewards: the champion the cup of course and all players a golden medal, the losing finalist a silver medal for all players and the third team (the winner of the so called little final) a bronze medal. The FIFA could organize something better than they're used to and take the other team sports and the Olympic games as an example. That way the match for the third place would be of any value and not useless.
