Agen Bola Indo11.com revealed, According to Louis van Gaal, the introduction of goalkeeping-hero Tim Krul for the penalty shootout against Costa Rica was premeditated on Saturday.
Saving two penalties, Krul replaced Cillessen as part of Van Gaal’s plan due to his superior penalty-saving abilities. Finally, the Netherlands won Costa Rica 4-3.
The coach said: "We told Krul that he would be a possibility for the pens, we didn't tell Cillessen. We didn't want to ruin his preparation. There is no question about who will start next game, it will be Cillessen. But we felt Krul was the better choice here.”
He added: "We know Krul is the better penalty killer, a bigger reach too. We have practiced penalties, I believe when you're used to a certain shot you'll be more comfortable taking that shot. This is the best group I've worked with. In terms of team spirit, togetherness."
