Hup Holland Hup, the Dutch lose their soberness
Celebrations all over the country after the Dutch soccer team beat Uruguay for the world cup in South Africa. With this sixth consecutive victory during the championships, the Dutch have reached the finals. Next sunday they will play against the winner of Germany – Spain.
The so called “sober” Dutch seem to have massively left their homes to shout their Hup Holland Hup slogans in millions of variations. The cities look mediterranean with tens of thousands of people outside. In some cities, like The Hague and Rotterdam, police have cleared certain areas in an attempt to keep them safe.
Immediately after the match thousands of people have tried to book a flight to South Africa in an attempt to watch the finals. KLM has decided to charter at least four extra planes.
