Wales beaten by Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder without nuisance


Followed by 50,000 spectators in Rotterdam, Netherlands defeated without greater frights against Wales in which it was his last previous matches before EURO 2008.

The goals were made by Real Madrid players: Robben at 35 minutes and Sneijder at 54 minutes.

While Holland aims to have the best rate of game for the European Championship, Wales proved with a very young group.
