The Netherlands have 17 million inhabitants and I can guarantee you if you ask every single one of them to name the top 50 Dutch football experts, no one would mention Marcel vd Kraan 😂.

Yes but, you must be impressed by the way we pass sideways and backwards, surely. We are masters at that 😂

[stephano]

Im dutch and its kinda our nature to have a bit of a superiority complex and same goes for the british. We always think we are better than everyone else but in reality its a miracle both England and the Netherlands have made it to the semi finals. Some fairytale luck. Both sides have good and several weak points. Its going to be a interesting game and who can expose and exploit the other sides weakness the most will win. Good luck to both nations but i hope we win ofc ;)

I’m Norwegian and my impression is that Southgate is a tactical genius.The way he has drilled his players into their sideways/ sideways / backwards passing game is totally admired by all the other managers. To have some of the best forward players in the world and still manage to hardly score any goals is almost perfection. Go Southgate.

[FavreianVengeance]

Spain and Germany have looked the best to me. That quarterfinal was tasty but still a shame that the matchup came too soon.

[sanmateoflights]

The Dutch media are right about England - not impressive but hard to beat.

[BabzV]

As a Dutchie I think neither team has been playing very well so far.
We've had some good moments here and there just like England, but nothing special.
We're both capable of more, hopefully it'll finally come out in both teams on Wednesday and we all get to see an entertaining match.







....which we will win of 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱😉🌷

Spain has been the most consistent among the four left.

[namrofni]

Southgate's team talk - make the opposition sleepy and nick a goal.

[gohumberto]

We (England) have been dreadful, that's a fact. However .... it's probably better that you beat us BEFORE taking the piss.

[steves]

I hope Keoman wears his socks like that for the game!

[davidcopson]

Boring play doesn't mean the team playing like that is easy to beat. And a tournament full of own goals, including Stopgap.

[TheBarnster]

The Netherlands have hardly been tearing it up.

[terencewhite]

To be fair there has not been any earth shaking game in this competition

[Thegoodbadson]

Man City’s Punishment should be SOUTHGATE managing them for 5 years💯

[mgpunya]

No team has a "football style" identity now, except for Spain. Long gone are the days when we see battles & clash between style...

[rorygee]

Just pin this up in the England dressing room.

[Oscar_s_World]

More fun to come on OW, follow us all the way to the final 🥇⚽😊

[staomruel]

Dutchie here!

Erm, who is Marcel vd Kraan?
