Netherlands' Goalkeeper, Jasper Cillessen has never saved a penalty in his entire professional career. He has faced 8 penalties in Dutch Eredivisie, 3 penalties in UEFA Champions League and 6 penalties in World Cup and he saved none.
So why must Luis Van Gaal allow him during the penalty shoot-out against Argentina while he left out Tim Krul who came in to saved them against Costa Rica? Probably Luis Van Gaal danced to the tune of Jasper Cillessen who complained of his removal in the game against Costa Rica.
Now the whole of Netherlands have now paid the price of one man's decision. Netherlands have always been unlucky at the World Cup and so, they still remain World Cup underachievers.
The question is when will Netherlands be delivered from this their underachieving status? Anyway, only time will tell.
Looking forward to the great cracker between Germany and Argentina on Sunday.
