“Krul for the Dutch, Crueler (Krul-er) for Costa Rica” that was some fire commentary
agreed
Krul had guessed all the penalty shot directions, and saved 2 shots. What a goalie!
If he was that great he would’ve started, great performance on the night , that’s it nothing more than that
@@sluglow6357 yeah he's only a demon at saving penalties unfortunately.
@@sluglow6357 bruh your a pure fkn hater.. Straight up
@@sluglow6357 Slug Bug
@@sluglow6357 Feel better?
Turns out Tim was Not an expert in penalties. It was just a psychological trick to fool Costa Rica. Well played 👏
Perhaps it was both
They won against Mexico in the round before with a penalty after a Robben dive, against this other CONCACAF team they won with a legal trick
It's actually to do with Krul being more willing to play mind games with the Costa Rican players and his size was more physically imposing, helping with that
He wasn’t before but he was trained to become a penalty expert
Bruh in Newcastle krul knowed for penalty expert, he was write all penlaty taker best foot on his mineral bottle
You gotta hand it to Van Gaal. Genius.
He’s(was) one of the best coaches on earth
Notice that even the balls that he let in.. he still dived the corner where they shot.
And??? They still made the shot, only thing that matters. You trynna give him credit for something he doesn’t deserve. None of the process of nothing ever matters, only the result. Navas also predicted where they was gon shoot, did he get any credit for it, no, they still lost, only thing that mattered
@@-Sergioxx- but sir! 😥
@@-Sergioxx- It does matter because it does speak for the quality of goalkeepers. There's a difference between diving right 5 times and saving two and just saving to by coincidence. Also, why so angry? Do I have to guess your Nationality? Also, just to get the facts straight, Navas did dive right twice, and wrong twice.
@@peterteddy3367 where in my entire comment do I explicitly state I am angry? You're quick to say it because I'm stating the facts. Do you think people care about "coincidence", I don't think so, I think a goalkeeper that blocks every single shot by "coincidence" is overall better and will be overall seen and preferred better over one that dives in the corners spot on every time but blocks no shots. Is there a difference? There is Does it matter AT ALL? It doesn't
@@-Sergioxx- thing is no keeper will ever be able to block every penalty in a shootout, at least not often, so the keeper being able to dictate where a player shoots maximises the chances of saving it. Showing that Krul has a great understanding of the psychology behind penalties
What a performance by Krul. He shows who is the boss.
The fact that this happened in the stadium that my heart team plays, make this match more legendary for me
What an iconic sentence by the commentator when the last penalty was saved
He played the sub conscious mind of the opponent. Before every penalty kick Krul warmed up on one side of the goal and dived on the other side to save the kick. He let the opponent subconsciously think that the other side from where krul did his stretches was vacant.
That's not something you can count on, so he still had to wait and react to the shot.
Nope.
Nope.
I remember this game. I supported Costa rica as underdogs, and remember that Holland dominated all the game . If not Navas,it could be 3 or 4:0 for Holland. But Krul saved the day for Hollands !😅
As a dutchman i was so glad we were able to switch gk before the end bc the one that was in goal is known to be bad at stopping pens.
I never noticed at the time just how many shots were sent to the keepers left
"It's Krul for the Dutch! It's cruel for Costa Rica..." You know the announcer was patiently waiting to say that
You've reminded me of that Dutch golden generation led by rvp, robben and Wesley
Tim Krul was my hero in this World Cup!
Same
I just wonder what would've happened if he was the golie against Argentina at the penalty shootout
@@elsoudani4028 argentina would have still won
@@elsoudani4028 Martinez is better by far, so Argentina would have won.
@@writamchatterjee4676 lol there was no Martinez then😂😂😂😂😂 the Argentine goalkeeper was Sergio Romero .. he did very well in the shootout
When you influence the subconscious mind, you don’t have to guess the direction. Krul did not guess any of the dives. He knew what influence he had put on their subconscious. He touched Ruiz’s right shoulder, subconsciously telling him to shoot in that direction. SAVE. He would walk around the box, either on the right or left. Subconsciously telling the shooters that that side is covered, so shoot in the opposite direction. Thrice, he dived in the correct direction, beaten by the power of the shot. Third time is the charm, SAVE. Learn about the subconscious mind and use it to your advantage. It’s a “superpower”.
you think you're so smart, it's pathetic lol
@@frecklenuckle4450 haha I hope you're doing okay.
Great goalkeeper Even if he ended our Best world cup run (yet).
@evielaingmusic OP is talking about Costa Rica's run. It ended here
Sorry and much love to Bryan Ruiz and Manfred Ugalde from the Netherlands
On paper, Navas was supposed to be better than Krul. That was a great move by van Gaal.
He could have done the same in semis
@@iganzeharera37 he ran out of subs there
Tim Krul, the Soccer's Hero!

@@Shivarai11 No one ask you
@@wg4366 well guess what mf i did...
@@wg4366 no one’s telling you😂 Who are you again?
This goal-keeper was actually trained for Penalty kicks
Glad Tim Krul finally getting some recognition. I remember 2014 WC Netherlands vs Costa Rica, game went to penalties but in the 118 or something minute, Van Gaal subs on Krul for Cillessen just because Krul had saved 2 penalties in his career and Cillessen hadn’t saved any. Krul went on to guess the right way all 4 shots and saved 2 of them. Louis Van Gaal looked like a genius because of that move
Years later and cillesen still hasn’t saved 1 penalty
Van Gaal is a mastermind strategist
In 2014, I only watched soccer/football, but I didn't know much about it and I didn't know many players. So I'd never heard about Tim Krul, however I'm Dutch. But from that moment I knew who he is! What a great penalty shoot-out that was, awesome! / In 2014 keek ik enkel nog maar naar voetbal, maar ik wist er nog niet zoveel van en kende ook nog niet zoveel spelers. Dus had ik ook nog nooit van Tim Krul gehoord, tot dit moment, toen wist ik wie hij was. Dat was echt een gave strafschoppenserie, geweldig!
i remember this so well. the nation's hero lol
Wdym by ‘lol’
Great goalkeeping

Hi
This was brazil
aight bro
Uh... Pretty sure this was from the tournament in Brazil.
Tim Krul against costa rica, he saved two in the pentaly shootout
The reason why I am a KNVB fan both Orange Lions and Lionesses. Tim Krul is forever my Hero.
Gotta love that cillessen reaction. Bromance
I can't imagine how it feels to send your team to the World Cup final like that.
semifinal*
@@parthibnag6840 my b
Krul from world cup hero to Luton Town reserve,lots can change in 10 years
Mario Gotze and Tim Krul two legendary substitutions of Brazil 2014
Krul was off his line on every pen lol
Yeah under new rule all the save would have been ruled out
Its been 10 years but this moment is still legendary.
A Great Sportsmann ,FairPlay in Person🏆🏆🏆
Well where was he tonight???
it was actually mind games, he tricked the players to shoot the ball to the direction he wanted, if you pay close attention you will see that he walks to one side of the goal, this tricks the players and gives them some sort of a block and small space on the side he was walking, and makes the other side look like it has more space, so they shoot to the side they think has more space!
Krul played the mind games well.
6:45 the commentator planned that alllll night 😂
Tim krul played the role of super sub to perfection
Tim Krul was the hero of this World Cup
Sadness is KRUL has been cruelly left out by Van Gaal
That's not true. He told Van Gaal he didn't want to come for a 'penalty training' for 1 day, then Van Gaal told him he wasn't going to the world Cup if he wouldn't come to the penalty training. Krul agreed with that
he is a genius
Those two penalties saved had krul step out of the goal line. If the rules had been as today's, Costa Rica🇨🇷 would've had a fairy tale run.
Van Gaal: I will release my boy Krul and tear everyone to shreds, no one can beat our mind games. Dibu Martinez: hi.. *dance*
I still remember:'(
“it’s krul for the dutch! it’s kruel for costa rica!” amazing commentary!
Para a Fifa quando é goleiro sulamericano não pode provocar, mas se for goleiro europeu provocando aí vira heroi.
Asi es...nadie se acuerda de este arquero precursor...
07:24 Cillessen just wanted a handskake with the hero, but looked up on the screen and realised he wasn't invited to the party.. :(
Van persie 😍
how many minutes in total did this match last? from first whistle to final. I remember it feeling like forever
I like how Navas praying do for his teammates to score
Van gaal before this substitution ,he said to his assistant that he is sending specialist
Krill plays for Norwich what a goalkeeper
Tim KRUL, we still haven't forgiven him 🇨🇷
Really? Come on. I get the initial anger from the lose but you can’t remain angry, that’s not what football is about.
@@Victor-07-04 What I don't get is why a lot of people from the Netherlads cried about Dibu Martinez but loved Krul
@@G.L.O.S.S. Well that might be because Emi Martinez isn’t just unsportive on the field but he’s also unsportsmanlike outside of the field. He literally asked for a minute of silence for and he literally carried a dole of the man who scored 4 goals against him in the final. And Argentina has no problem with that man’s appalling behavior but they waged a war on the Netherlands for a bit criticism from our coach which wasn’t even meant as criticism but only to bring forward facts that would highlight the Netherlands chances on winning the quarterfinal.
@@Victor-07-04Don't cry. ⭐⭐🌟
Tim Krul spesialis tendangan pinalti
The only thing costs Rica had to do was shoot way harder… because normally goalkeepers guess where the ball will go and then jump in this direction… this time Krul waited until they shot and jumped after the ball and because they were more softly he could save them
Tim Krul hero 🥶 April 9, 2023
Now that I revisit this, I don't know how Costa Rica's last penalty wasn't retaken, as Krul clearly stepped forward from the goal line. Lower the playback speed and pause before the player kicks the ball and see it for yourself.
You'd have to retake every penalty then. Both navas and krull came out a lot by todays standards
@@aykhanaliyev4720 the penalty will be retaken only if the goalie saves the shot
the same happens but for costa rica against greece when navas saves gkekas penalty
@@user-qu7ke8oj5q Greece deserved to win that match
@@javierllaneri2754 i was 12 and it was my first big memory of football and the first time i cried for it😅

Selalu ketebak arah bola nya. Ngeri memang krul. Spesialis penalti
Krul tipo odioso
Would have made things interesting to see this keeper vs dibu Martinez in 2022
❤️ jos
I am pretty sure this is the one and only time that Holland had a perfect shootout ;)
Martinez ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Van Gaal is great. Krul too. Ronald Koeman should watch.

Contra a Argentina, na semifinal, ele não entrou. Acho que teria defendido também .
@Cozinha Elementar Van Gaal había hecho todos los cambios. En ronda de penales ya no pudo ingresar.
For Krul these were the only famous/exciting 15 minutes in his career
And it will never be forgotten.
He was actually brilliant in newcastle during their epl bottom table days. Them geordie remembers him
He is class for Norwich. Penalty shootout against Tottenham in 2020 was great
🎉🎉❤
If he was the keeper in the semi final against Argentina the netherlands wouldve been against germany tht year
iirc, van gaal did regret that decision
En el 1er penal el arquero de Holanda se adelantó.
💪💪💪💪💪
Keylor Navas increible
Van Gaal is a master!!!
Where is Brian Ruiz now ? He was a wonderful player
He was already one of the older ones, and since this missed pen his career went downhill
When Krul does it everybody cheers, when Martinez does it they hate him and they change the rules of the game 🫠
Where were IFAB in that situation? Only when a non european does it, it got "forbidden"
On the next match van gaal decided to dont subtituted cilessen when the penalty shotout netherland vs argentina. And the result is history 🤣🤣
He couldn't cuz he had already used his 4 substitutions.
I'm not sure it would have worked out again though if he replaced the keepers for the second time. I think the suprise of this decision played a big part.
@@marly1915Maybe, then again, it could have worked because they obviously would have watched that shoot out and knew what he had done. We’ll never know
Krul is the second Chicharito replacing someone makes a result but only at the gate
Netherlands was supposed to be champion in 2010 AND or 2014.
Very unlucky for the team they had exceptional players
@@mehran7394 Robben, Van Persie, Sneijder deserved it. And yes. 0-1 last minute goal by Iniesta which was an offside and the failed penalty shootout elimination via Argentina and Argentina went to the final to lose 0-1. Unfortunate!
@@mehran7394 How do you see the Orange (Netherlands) doing in Qatar 2022?
@@patricklutherwinchester4260 hmm let’s see they’ve got lots of promising young talent this year round it will be challenging for them but I think they have a chance. Never say never 😉

What was Donald Trump doing in the Dutch bench?
I’ve always randomly thought about these penalty kicks, ever since I saw them, live. I think this is the first time I’m watching it back, since then. When I thought about them, three things always stuck with me: 1. The gutsy call by the Dutch boss to sub his starting GK for one off the bench 2. The camera panning to Cilissen, right after he got subbed, showing him kicking a garbage can. 3. Bryan Ruiz missing - just watched this right now. Var would’ve called for a retake on this. Both of Krul’s feet were off the goal line, while the shot was being kicked.
LOL salty much
Poker move
O cara acertou todos os cantos kk
Mate, but Costarica.... I think everyone cheered for them, because that was such a suprise. Seeing them at semfinals would be amazign, so close
