Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Argentina beat the Netherlands 4-3 on penalties in a dramatic, testy match at Lusail\u2019s Iconic Stadium to set up a semi-final against Croatia, following their World Cup quarter-final finish at 2-2 after extra-time.<\/p>\n

A total of 17 yellow cards were handed out in the match on Friday, which looked to be going Argentina\u2019s way until the Netherlands equalised in the 10th minute of stoppage time.<\/p>\n

A half-hour of extra time saw no breakthroughs. The Dutch failed to score their first two penalties in the shootout, while Argentina were flawless until they missed their fourth. Lautaro Martinez scored their final spot kick and kept Argentina\u2019s World Cup dreams alive. The match took a long time to get going.<\/p>\n

But in the 35th minute, Lionel Messi \u2013 who else? \u2013 put together a moment of magic to thread an inch-perfect pass to Nahuel Molina in the box who wasted no time in burying the ball into the back of the net.<\/p>\n

The game trundled on until a foul just inside the Dutch penalty area in the 72nd minute had the referee pointing to the spot, and Argentina\u2019s record-breaking Number 10 stood forward once more.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands\u2019s keeper Andries Noppert could only watch as Messi\u2019s shot rocketed past him to double Argentina\u2019s lead. In the 83rd minute, five minutes after coming onto the pitch, Wout Weghorst found the net with the Netherlands\u2019s first shot on goal.<\/p>\n

Two minutes later, Memphis Depay rocketed the ball into the side netting. A bad-tempered match saw a fracas break out towards the end of normal time, with Argentina\u2019s Leandro Paredes losing his cool and booting the ball into the Dutch dugout \u2013 the substitutes then storming onto the pitch. That incident and the other frequent stoppages were enough to add 10 minutes to the clock and that was just enough.<\/p>\n

A free kick for the Netherlands in the 101st minute of normal time turned out to be a surprise training-ground exercise from the Dutch, as Teun Koopmeiners rolled the ball to the foot of the wall where Weghorst was waiting once more to turn and sweep a shot into the goal to bring the score to 2-2. Extra time saw tempers flaring again but no goals despite chances at both ends.<\/p>\n
