RUUD CONGRATULATES PORTUGAL

Last updated : 01 July 2004 By Editor

Probably no death threats though. Ruud after the Dutch defeat last night:

"It's unbelievable how the referee ruled everything in favour of Portugal. He was a real home whistler, with every 50-50 situation going for them, but we cannot do anything about it.

"They had the better chances, it's tough losing like this but we had problems playing our own game."
