The Netherlands came from behind to stun five-time champion Brazil 2-1 Friday to become the first semifinalist of the World Cup Wesley Sneijder scored the winner in the 68th minute with a header following a corner kick. "It just slipped through from my bald head and it was a great feeling," Sneijder said. It was the Netherlands' first win over Brazil since the 1974 World Cup, when Johan Cruyff was the team's star and "total football" reigned."It was an amazing game. I think we showed the whole world how we can play," Sneijder said. "Finally we won, we beat Brazil."
