·點球大戰荷蘭更勝一籌 替補門神克魯爾神勇建奇功
·Sub Krul wins shoot-out for Dutch
荷蘭點球大戰淘汰哥斯達黎加晉級4強，克魯爾出人意料成最大功臣。這位效力于紐卡斯爾聯隊的門將在替補席上靜靜地坐了120分鐘。一直到荷蘭主教練范加爾最后一刻要求換人，克魯爾才得以替換上場，為點球大戰做最后一搏。克魯爾并未讓人失望，他成功撲出兩粒點球，把橙衣軍團送入半決賽。
Tim Krul emerged as the unlikeliest of heroes as the Netherlands edged Costa Rica on penalties to book a FIFA World Cup? semi-final against Argentina. The Newcastle United goalkeeper spent 120 goalless minutes on the bench, before Louis van Gaal brought him on in the nick of time for a penalty shoo-tout. Krul responded by saving two spot-kicks to send the Oranje to Sao Paulo.
