Late prediction: I expect Chile to beat the Dutch 2-1.

They're trying to counter themselves to a goal/victory, so it makes sense Van Gaal wanted a player with pace to replace RVP. Klaas is a threat inside an opponent's box, but would not be suited to play in this system.

Van Gaal might sub him in if he ever decides to change the formation to a 4-3-3.

Both teams attack with one foot on the brake. Both want the 1-0 but neither wants to really commit.

Depay comes on for Lens. No tactical change.

True that. Second place will have to go through the likes of Brazil and possibly Italy/Columbia/France/Germany etc... at some point.

Fer will come on in a bit. For Sneijder.

Sneijder leaves for Fer, Dutch are playing for the counter.
