Dutch journalists are voicing deep disappointment with the national team’s performance at Euro 2024, casting doubt on their chances of progressing beyond the round of 16.
Ronald Koeman’s squad, according to critiques, appears to rely heavily on luck to advance further.
Following a 3-2 defeat to Austria, where Marcel Sabitzer’s late goal sealed their fate, Dutch media has not held back.
AD Sportwereld’s Sjoerd Mossou described the team’s first-half display as ‘pathetic’, highlighting defensive lapses and a lack of offensive threat.
Ronald Koeman himself admitted to a slew of mistakes, labeling their start as ‘appalling’.
He emphasized issues with defense, aggression, and ball retention, acknowledging a need for significant improvement before their next match.
Facing England
With a potential clash against England looming in the knockout stage, optimism among Dutch supporters remains cautious.
Despite England’s own struggles, the Dutch must rally to overcome their recent setbacks and prove their mettle on the European stage.
