Holland v Argentina - Starting Line-Ups - Saviola, Heinze, Crespo, Robben, Van Bronckhorst on the Bench

Submitted by Pavlos Skoufis on Wed, 21/06/2006 - 19:43.

Argentina coach Jose Pekerman and Holland coach Marco Van Basten left many of their key players on the bench out of fears that they will get booked again.

Barcelona's Javier Saviola and Giovanni Van Bronckhorst, Manchester United's Gabriel Heinze and Chelsea's Crespo and Robben were left out of the starting line-up and are unlikely to play as they have already been booked once and they risk losing the knockout match.

The match has importance, as the winner will play against Mexico and the loser against Portugal. In case of a draw, Argentina finishes top by goals difference.
