(Reuters) - Netherlands coach Andries Jonker praised the performance of Daphne van Domselaar after the goalkeeper made a string of saves on Sunday to deny South Africa and help her team progress to the quarter-finals of the Women's World Cup.

The 23-year-old Aston Villa goalkeeper was named the player of the match as the Dutch notched up a 2-0 win over the African champions at Sydney Football Stadium and set up a last eight clash with Spain in Wellington on Friday.
