BREAKING: Argentina beat Netherlands on penalties in World Cup quarter-final epic.
Netherlands really struggled to rustle anything up going forward and they continued to pose little threat after the break.
They didn’t even have to create their own chance to score their second, with Denzel Dumfries rather clumsily giving away a penalty on 71 minutes. Up stepped Messi to face the giant Noppert, but the Dutch goalkeeper remained in the centre of his goal as the PSG forward whipped the ball to the stoppers left and into the corner.Netherlands were desperate by this point and started going a lot more direct, with the introduction of target man Wout Weghorst paying off as he got on the scoresheet, nodding in a great cross from the right flank on 83 minutes.
