The South Americans survived a dramatic finish to extra-time in their quarter-final against Ghana. Star striker Luis Suarez was sent off for handling the ball on the line, but Asamoah Gyan failed to convert the resulting penalty forcing a penalty shootout in which Uruguay triumphed after goalkeeper Robert Muslera saved two shots from Ghana. Uruguay coach OscarTabarez said the handball was instinctive from Suarez, who misses out on the semi-finals.

Meanwhile Netherlands scripted the shock result of the tournament bundling off five-time winners Brazil by a 2-1 margin. Robinho had opened the score for Brazil in the 10th minute, but an own goal from Felipe Melo and a superb header from Wesley Sneijder gave the Oranje a great win. Netherlands coach Bert van Marwijk will be without Gregory van der Wiel and Nigel de Jong for this game after the pair picked up their second booking of the Cup in the match against Brazil.
