Netherlands striker Robin van Persie showed enough of his old form in the Netherlands' victory over Denmark to prove that he has fully recovered from an ankle injury.
In front of a near capacity crowd at Soccer City, the 26-year-old Dutchman was a consistent thorn in the side of the Danish team. And it was his cross that led to the own goal that broke the deadlock in the 46th minute.
Van Persie's fitness and ability to keep cool will be crucial if the Netherlands can finally land the biggest prize in football.
