Argentina will play Germany in Sunday’s
World Cup final after beating
Netherlands on penalties in a drab
semi-final in Sao Paulo.
Chances were rare during a forgettable
120 minutes, Argentina’s Gonzalo
Higuain poking the best opportunity into
the side-netting in normal time.
Argentina’s Sergio Romero saved from
Ron Vlaar and Wesley Sneijder in the
shootout, before Maxi Rodriguez struck.
His winning penalty put Argentina into
their first World Cup final since 1990.
