FIFA World Cup 2022 Quarter-Final ** spoilers ** [9th - 10th December 2022]

Neymar should have been going first, I'm sure he could have. Hasn't this happened before with him too, waiting for the last penalty but it not going that far.

He's the Brazil designated penalty taker so he should be going first or no later than 3rd. I don't think many managers would be strategically trying to get their best penalty taker to go last...
 
Netherlands XI: Noppert; Timber, Van Dijk, Ake; Dumfries, De Roon, De Jong, Blind; Gakpo, Depay, Bergwijn

Argentina XI: E Martinez; Molina, Otamendi, Li Martinez, Romero, Acuna; De Paul, Enzo, Mac Allister; Messi, Alvarez
 
Feel for @BaZ87 today. He rigged it and STILL lost :D

I'm sure im wrong or hope i am anyway but imo its about the images. Neymar scores the winning pen and his image is everywhere.

You look at that Dutch line up and it looks so strong. VvD, Ake, Dumfries, De Jong, Blind, Gakpo, Depay, Bergwijn. All top quality.
 
Ake, Blind, Depay and Bergwin top quality?
For the Netherlands yes, 22 goals in his last 26 internationals for Depay for example. Some players can be top quality when playing internationally, even if they arent at club level, and of course vice versa
