no, that's exactly my point-- anywhere else, robben flies like an eagle. here, he actually breaks his spine.
in fact he got up, continued to play for a few minutes, and then asked for a change.
i was surprised his pelvis didn't actually detach when it happened. it whiplashed the ground. in slow motion you could see it bounce.
bastard who fouled him (kramer + the other guy) only got a yellow. these germans are pretty rugged in their style of play. and very little bitching about it.
