Dutch mills fear Romania’s surprises
Sudan Events – Agencies
The Netherlands national team is playing a cautious confrontation against Romania, at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, today, Tuesday, in the Euro 16 final. The Dutch team and its coach, Ronald Koeman, were not satisfied with their inconsistent technical performance and modest results in the first round, as the Windmills qualified from the fourth group among the best 4 teams that ranked third. This showed that the Netherlands suffers from a clear weakness in the defense line, as its captain, Virgil van Dijk, was subjected to many criticisms, and other stars such as Memphis Depay and Nathan Ake were not spared, while goalkeeper Bert Warbruchen carried a heavy burden, and on the other hand, playmaker Xavi Simons shined and Cody Jacobo, who scored two goals against Poland and Austria. As for Eduard Iordanescu, the coach of the Romanian national team, he caused a resounding surprise by topping Group E in an exciting scenario, after collecting 4 points, superior on goal difference to all his rivals Belgium, Slovakia and Ukraine, who collected the same score. More than one player, such as Radu Dargosin and Andrei Ratio, appeared in Romania’s ranks, as well as midfielder Rashvan Marin and the attacking duo of Giannis Hagi and Nicolae Stanciu. The winner of the Netherlands vs. Romania match will play with the winner of the Austria vs. Türkiye match in the quarter-finals.
