Holland midfielder Mark van Bommel insists that Howard Webb 'affected' the World Cup final. Spain secured the title with Andres Iniesta scoring the only goal of the game just moments from the end of extra-time.
But with a record 14 yellow cards and one red card handed out to Holland's Johnny Heitinga, Van Bommel insists the Englishman played his part in the outcome of the game.
Both Van Bommel and his midfield partner Nigel De Jong were considered lucky, by some, to even finish the match, but the Manchester City man felt Webb had a bad game.
Arjen Robben had also hit out at referee Howard Webb, insisting he was not strong enough to handle the World Cup final.
Former Chelsea star Robben believes he suffered a gross injustice when Spanish defender Carles Puyol, who had already been cautioned, held him back in his attempt to race through when the match was still goalless.
