Manchester City midfielder Nigel de Jong says Holland feels it is their year at the World Cup.
De Jong is confident the time has come for Holland to break their World Cup duck after they finally gained revenge over Brazil.
Dutch hopes of winning the trophy for the first time were dashed by the Brazilians in the quarter-finals in 1994 and again in a heart-breaking semi-final shootout four years later.
Holland will face Uruguay, who edged out sole African survivors Ghana in a penalty shootout last night, in Cape Town on Tuesday evening believing their time has finally come.
De Jong said: "Why not? The belief has always been there. We have reached the semi-final and we will see what happens now.
"Now we have to analyse our next opponents and make sure we can go on from the semi-final.
"Like I said at the beginning of the tournament, you have got to beat everybody to reach the final. Now we have beaten Brazil, we have to make sure we do the same to our next opponent."
