Uruguay's penalty shoot-out hero Sebastian Abreu has identified Arjen Robben as the dangerman in their World Cup semi-final with Holland tomorrow.

Coach Oscar Tabarez has alerted them to the threat the Bayern Munich winger will provide.

Abreu said: "We have watched a lot of videos on Holland because we don't know too much about them.

"Holland and Uruguay play very similar football, but they have very good potential in their attack with very clever players like (Wesley) Sneijder and (Arjen) Robben."

"Tabarez has been talking to us about Robben and how to stop a player like him from going forward, but it's always different when you are on the field.

"So we know how to do it, but whether the actual execution actually comes off is another thing."

The Botafogo striker went down in Uruguayan football folklore with his coolness in netting the winning kick in the quarter-final victory over Ghana.

He audaciously chipped the ball straight down the centre to hand the South American's a 4-2 shoot-out win after their 120 minutes at Soccer City ended 1-1.

Abreu said: "For me, this is the best way to score a goal, because I always take my penalties in this way.

"I am always one of the five kickers for Uruguay and I will continue to take my kicks in this way."

However, the 33-year-old conceded the moment was not the best of his career, instead handing that honour to a moment during qualifying for the finals.

"No, I don't think this is the best moment of my career," he said. "That moment is definitely 18 November 2009 when I scored the goal that helped us qualify for this World Cup (against Costa Rica in Montevideo).

"That was the most important moment for me. But today I am also very proud and very happy that the entire country is supporting us."
