Missed the penalty in the World Cup, the "giant" of the Netherlands: I didn't sleep for two days

Virgil Van Dijk missed one of Holland's penalties in the penalty shootout against Argentina in the World Cup quarter-finals, a moment he has struggled to get over.

"The first two days I had difficulty sleeping. The disappointment was logical. We were very close, we even recovered two goals. Unfortunately, we missed a chance. It hurts a lot, I had a very difficult afternoon and night", - commented the defender of Livepool for "Visplay Sport Nederland", after the victory of "The Reds" against Aston Villa, in the match of the 17th week of the Premier League -s.

"I left the world of football for a while and had the opportunity to focus on my family. This, yes, is the most important thing in life", he concluded.

Van Dijk started all five matches that the Netherlands played at the World Cup. The Dutch were eliminated in the quarterfinals by Argentina, the team that went on to become world champions.
