Match Commentary
94' That's it. Holland and Argentina are through. Ivory Coast, despite a good effort and some fine players are out. Those goals from van Persie and van Nistelrooy proved decisive. |
94' This is the last chance. A free kick on the edge of the box. Boulahrouz is booked, meanwhile. And it is a terrible free kick, sailing way over everyone. |
92' Akale crosses but van Persie, who has defended well, clears at the back post. |
