Van Persie set to lead Dutch line
Posted Tuesday, July 06, 2010 by PA
Robin van Persie will start up front for Holland when they face Uruguay in the World Cup semi-final on Tuesday.
The Arsenal striker had been a doubt after injuring his elbow against Brazil in the quarter-final but has been given the all-clear and will be hoping to fire the Dutch to their first World Cup final since 1978.
Striker Luis Suarez will be missing for Uruguay following his dismissal against Ghana while Jorge Fucile is also suspended and Diego Godin and skipper Diego Lugano are both doubts due to knee and thigh injuries respectively.
