Robben Island: Cameroon 1-2 Holland

Awaited return of the megastar
From a forced two game absence
Oranje so far been notable
Arjen’s return makes them immense

Bert Van Marwijk kept to his word
Sending out his strongest line up
Van Persie clinched a clever move
Robin’s first of Africa’s World Cup

Penalty lashed home by Eto
Robben’s twenty yarder on the bar
Flying Dutchman the difference
Rebound in by Huntelaar
