In the 25th minute, Costa collects a threaded ball, races into the box and turns his marker, Stefan de Vrij ... it looks as if de Vrij clips Costa's trailing leg and the referee points to the spot Photograph: Paul Gilham/Getty Images

But Robin van Persie scores an extraordinary goal to draw Holland level. He latches onto an enticing 50-yard cross and loops a long range header over the keeper. That was beautifully executed Photograph: Jeff Gross/Getty Images

Stefan de Vrij soon scrambles the ball into the net for Holland for the third time. Iker Casillas was clearly fouled by Van Persie as the ball came across ... Photograph: David Ramos/Getty Images

This is a total calamity for Spain .... Casillas gives the ball away on the fringe of his box, van Persie pounces and it's 4-1! Photograph: Christophe Ena/AP

Then Robben bags a fifth. That was all about acceleration. He blitzed past Spain's defence, collected the throughball and rounded Casillas with immense composure. Photograph: GUILLAUME HORCAJUELO/EPA
