·荷蘭點球大戰最終勝出 哥斯達黎加夢碎新水源

·Holland break Costa Rica hearts with penalty shootout victory

范加爾為點球大戰做出最后一搏，克魯爾替補上場。克魯爾這位紐卡的門將，在本次世界杯上從未碰球，直到在加時賽最后一刻替下西里森，他才有機會展現自己。之后證明，克魯爾當之無愧成為當晚戰勝哥斯達黎加的大功臣。

Louis van Gaal’s substitutions did it again – eventually. Tim Krul, the Newcastle United goalkeeper who had not touched the ball in this World Cup before he was sent on for Jasper Cillessen at the end of extra time, was Holland’s hero on a breathless night that broke Costa Rican hearts.

頑強的哥斯達黎加給荷蘭帶來巨大威脅，正是克魯爾撲出了由魯伊斯主罰的第二粒點球和由烏馬納主罰的最后一粒點球，帶領荷蘭隊晉級4強。

It was Krul who saved the second penalty from Bryan Ruiz and the fifth from Michael Uma?a to take Holland through, after a dogged Costa Rica had given them an almighty scare.

·World Cup 2014: Argentina into semi-finals at expense of Belgium

阿根廷突破心理障礙，成功戰勝毫無所獲的比利時隊。盡管阿根廷在之前的比賽中磕磕絆絆，但現在他們24年后終于再次挺進半決賽。圣保羅要為阿根廷的入侵做好準備。

Argentina burst through a psychological barrier in overcoming a becalmed Belgium. Where the last eight has seen La Albiceleste stumble too often in recent tournaments, now they will contest a semi-final for the first time in 24 years. S?o Paulo should brace itself for an invasion.
