I had intended to watch the game, but I woke up too late — just before 9 o’clock. I hope it was still a beautiful game, despite the ever-present VAR, slow-motion images, ball technology, secret interpretations, and suspended suspensions. In lawyerland, even the ball may need legal advice. I personally planted some Dutch gladioli next to the dying ball — a small tribute to the “death or the gladioli” spirit Louis van Gaal referred to so often. And no, Louis did not eat them for lunch. In America, Louis’ Lunch means something else entirely. 🙂
