Holland and The Netherlands are often used to refer to the same place. Holland is actually only a part of the Netherlands, so they are not the same thing. Many people don't know that and use both names to refer to the same thing. Usually when people use Holland they are intending to refer to the Netherlands. So technically it was the Netherlands and Spain beat them 1-0, but if you said Holland people would know what you mean.
