    All credit to De Jong, he was under tremendous pressure.

    He sees the keeper move and can't believe his luck.

    Good solid penalty. Now it'll be down to his goalkeeper to pull this one out of the fire.

    Enzo Fernandez

    Huge pressure on this one as Andries Noppert guesses correctly and Enzo Fernandez drags his effort wide of the bottom left corner.

    Another excellent penalty into the bottom left corner. No stopping that one. He keeps Dutch hopes alive.

    Side foot. Keeper going the wrong way. Textbook stuff.

    Teun Koopmeiners

    Brilliant penalty under pressure, right into the top corner.

    Wonderful save from Emiliano Martinez, who dives to his left to repel Steven Berghuis' powerful effort.

    Quality. Messi made it look like he was in his back garden.

    Rolled home. So nonchalant from Lionel Messi.

    Virgil van Dijk goes bottom left but Emiliano Martinez turns it round the post. Brilliant save.

    Here we go then.

    The penalties will take place in the stand containing that little pocket of Dutch fans. The Netherlands will go first...

    Netherlands 2-2 Argentina

    Tim Vickery
    BBC Sport South American football expert

    It’s one of the lessons of this World Cup.

    You can win it or hang on in little bursts.

    The Netherlands did enough in that little burst to take this game to penalties.

    The Netherlands had two shots on target in the 120 minutes. Boy did they make them count.

    Netherlands 2-2 Argentina

    Argentina have won four of their five shootouts at a World Cup.

    The Netherlands have won one and lost two.

    Like that makes any difference here!

    I hope Argentina don't make the same mistake as Brazil and put their best penalty taker last. They want Messi to give them a good start.

    Looking though each of the players' last five penalties ahead of this shoot-out - this is Wout Weghorst's, and is hardly inspiring for the Dutch. He has missed four.

    Number four on this graphic was an effort for Wolfsburg against RB Leipzig in March 2021.

    It has been an absorbing contest. It see-sawed from one team to another.
