I see no way to blame Costa Rica for it, though. I mean, look at the clubs these guys play at. They are probably way over their normal limit here physically as well, they just don´t play at this level week after week (or often twice a week) like their dutch opponents.
And none of their players will ever be in this situation again, playing for a spot in a WC semi final, of course they take their chances in a Penalty shootout. Especially considering how well they did in that against Greece.
