Tottenham-Norwich, Krul pararigori thanks to the notes on the bottle (still image from YouTube video)
LONDON (ENGLAND) – Mourinho eliminated by the FA CUP. This time the "Special One" had to deal with someone shrewder than him. This is Norwich goalkeeper Timothy Michael Krul. The Dutch high defender was the big player in the penalty shootout. The regular time had ended on the result of one by one. In the 11-meter lottery, Krul saved two penalties by eliminating Tottenham from the FA Cup.
The cameras have revealed his secret. Krul had notes on Tottenham penalty takers on his bottle. It is not the first time that the Dutch goalkeeper proves to be an eleven-meter champion. During the 2014 World Cup quarter-final game in the Netherlands-Costa Rica, Van Gaal put him on the pitch in place of Cillessen just minutes from the penalties.
The choice of the technician seemed at least singular but proved successful. The game ended on zero to zero, Krul saved two penalties to Costa Rica giving Holland the qualification for the World Cup semifinal. Also yesterday, Krul saved two penalties by making Norwich smile and mocking Mourinho's Tottenham (YouTube video).
