Klaas Jan Huntelaar and Wesley Sneijder scored late goals yesterday to give the Netherlands a 2-1 victory over Mexico and a spot in the World Cup quarter finals.
Huntelaar, who came on as a 76th-minute substitute, scored the winning goal from the penalty spot deep in injury time after Rafael Marquez brought down Arjen Robben in the area.
Giovani Dos Santos gave the Mexicans the lead in the 48th minute, but Sneijder equalised for the Dutch in the 88th.
