范加爾在最后時(shí)刻換下門將，替補(bǔ)門將克魯爾（Tim Krul ）成為荷蘭晉級(jí)的最大功臣。

Louis Van Gaal's bold decision to bring the Newcastle goalkeeper on for Jasper Cillessen in extra-time was ultimately proved right after he became the shootout hero

出乎所有人意料，克魯爾成為荷蘭隊(duì)的功臣。荷蘭在點(diǎn)球大戰(zhàn)中以4-3的比分淘汰哥斯達(dá)黎加，順利晉級(jí)4強(qiáng)。

Tim Krul was the unlikely hero as Netherlands secured a 4-3 shoot-out win over Costa Rica to book a World Cup semi-final place.

本場(chǎng)比賽在薩爾瓦多的新水源競(jìng)技場(chǎng)進(jìn)行，雙方激戰(zhàn)120分鐘均無(wú)建樹。荷蘭隊(duì)3次射門擊中門框，曼聯(lián)新帥范加爾在加時(shí)賽最后階段亮出了最后一張王牌。

Over 120 goalless minutes in Salvador, Louis van Gaal's team struck the post or crossbar on three occasions and the Manchester United-bound manager unleashed an unexpected secret weapon from the bench during the dying seconds of extra time.

紐卡門將克魯爾撲點(diǎn)球不怎么在行。范加爾在加時(shí)賽最后階段用克魯爾換下了希勒森，后者在點(diǎn)球決勝階段先后撲出了魯伊斯（Celso Borges） 和烏馬納（Michael Umana）的射門。范佩西、羅本、斯內(nèi)德和庫(kù)伊特均射入點(diǎn)球。

Krul, who has an unremarkable penalty record at Newcastle United, came on for Jasper Cillessen to save Costa Rica's second and last penalties from Celso Borges and Michael Umana. Robin van Persie, Arjen Robben, Wesley Sneijder and Dirk Kuyt were the Netherlands' flawless foursome.

哥斯達(dá)黎加結(jié)束了他的黑馬征程。之前，他們從擁有烏拉圭、意大利和英格蘭死亡之組中頭名出線，又在淘汰賽第一輪點(diǎn)勝希臘。

It ends a remarkable journey for tournament outsiders Costa Rica, who won a group featuring Uruguay, Italy and England before beating Greece on spot-kicks.

這場(chǎng)比賽對(duì)荷蘭來(lái)說(shuō)同樣來(lái)之不易，他們?cè)谧罱拇筚愔杏羞^(guò)5次點(diǎn)球大戰(zhàn)，輸?shù)袅似渲械?次。
