Outside of it being highly unlikely that there are 2 blowout semifinals, is there really a great reason to think the same thing that happened to Brazil won't happen to Argentina? Brazil were missing Silva, Argentina are missing Di Maria. Brazil pretty much won ugly every game, Argentina is doing the same. In the group stage, the Dutch looked dominant for a game, middling for a game, and good for a game, much like the Germans. Outside of Messi still being around and Neymar getting hurt, I'm not sure I see a huge difference in how these games could turn out. Brazil was facing enormous pressure from its fans, but Argentina is facing pretty big pressure to win in its home continent.
I'm predicting 3-1 for The Dutch.
