The central match of the third round in group D.
Before the match of the 3rd round of the group stage of Euro 2024 between the teams of the Netherlands and Austria, head coach of “Dastim” Ralf Rangnick spoke with journalists. Quote from the confirmed official of the UEFA official website.
" Maybe a little weaker, because the French have a larger country. The Dutch play on a very high level, but I want to play more sections in which we dominate. You need to play intense strength football. Then we can show what we are building on.
It seems that the Dutch will continue to play the same way they played in Cruyff's watch - vertically and widely. In tomorrow's match, rebounds and jumps will play an important role.
I would respect the best place in the group, otherwise we need to overcome and be prepared for the defeat of France, which is unlikely. To sit in another place, we just need to overcome. We want to earn our job, we will be amazed at how other teams play.
If I was appointed head coach, Marco, perhaps, thought that it would not be easy for you. Ale I'm still learning everything is different. Tom won at the starting point in an important game against Poland and scored an important goal. He is the key person in our team. Perhaps he is no longer so quick to play on the flanks, but in the new one he has all the nuts and bolts that a center forward needs,” said Rangnik.
The match between the national teams of Austria and the Netherlands will take place on the 25th of Hearts, at 19:00 Kyiv time.
