WHAT TO EXPECT
It is hard to watch anyone except Lionel Messi when Argentina plays. But keep an eye on Messi’s attacking sidekick, Sergio Agüero, who is back from an injury just in time to take the place of Ángel di María, who will miss the game with an injury of his own. Agüero is a lethal finisher. What the Netherlands really needs is a leader. That role rests squarely on the shoulders of the playmaker Wesley Sneijder. The supremely confident Sneijder provided the tying goal in the 88th minute against Mexico in the Round of 16 and two shots that hit the post against Costa Rica in the quarterfinals. If anyone is in position to get Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben on the scoresheet again, it is him.
WHAT’S AT STAKE
For the Netherlands, a second straight berth in the World Cup final. For Argentina, their first since 1990.
