Leandro Paredes just booted that ball into the Netherlands dug out. He has caused a riot there. He is lucky. The foul was a booking in itself.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Here we go! It's kicked off big time! Leandro Parades slides in and fouls Nathan Ake. This is followed by the ball being booted into the dug out by Paredes. Out come the subs on to the field of play to shove and push and point and swear.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Steven Berghuis blocks Lionel Messi. A criminal offence. He is booked. It's a foul. Not a yellow card.

It is like land of the giants now. Virgil van Dijk is staying up for the Netherlands and I think it is the right call.
Louis van Gaal has been telling everyone how the game has evolved. This is going back over 20 years. It is route one.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Penny for Lisandro Martinez's thoughts right now? He must feel like Gulliver.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
It's route one now from the Netherlands.
Pure classic Wimbledon. They've got some absolute giants up top.

What a header it is from Wout Weghorst.
They can't play through Argentina so they’ll just play direct. They’ve got the big guys on.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Wout Weghorst's goal was Netherlands' first shot on target in this match.
They need at least one more.

The whole stadium thought that was in.

Martin Keown

I thought that was in the back of the net.
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Sidenetting!
The Dutch have finally, belatedly, come to life!
The ball is lobbed into the mixer and nodded down for Steven Berghuis to smash a shot into the side of the net. Half the ground thought it was inm!
Netherlands 1-2 Argentina
Well, Argentina have an unexpected test on their hands now.

Finally we get a decent ball in the box and it's a really good header from Wout Weghorst. Maybe Louis van Gaal is a genius and he's fooled us all.

Wow. I didn't see that coming...
Lusail Stadium has just gone very, very quiet.
The Netherlands couldn't could they?
Wout Weghorst
What do I know?! The Dutch are back in it!
It's Wout Weghorst with his first World Cup goal, getting across his marker to glance a cross from the right into the far corner of the net with his head.
They couldn't, could they?!
Netherlands 0-2 Argentina
It sort of does go in Weghorst's general direction but Argentina head clear.
Netherlands 0-2 Argentina
Another Argentine change. Lautaro Martinez for Julian Alvarez.
The Netherlands have a free-kick. Surely this goes in Weghorst's direction.

Get the ball wide and get lots of crosses in seems to be the ploy now for the Dutch. They just haven't created anything. I'm not sure the changes will be popular back in the Netherlands.
They seem to have got worse with the ones so far, not better.
Netherlands 0-2 Argentina
The Netherlands have 10 minutes to save their World Cup. I reckon they could have a 1010 minutes and they wouldn't score.
