His points are correct but Webb is being given too hard a time IMHO.
Yes, some of the fouls were terrible but he is probably being cautious and letting the football talk rather than his decisions influence who wins the world cup.
The players are to 100% to blame on how dirty the game was.
The Robben kicking the ball in the goal/away is a prime example.
If he sent him off people would say it was a little soft and he didnt hear the whistle....... he can't win.
It turned out that keeping most of the players on the field left no doubt that Spain deserved to win the world cup.
