Koeman's team is the favorite.

Head coach of the Netherlands national team Ronald Koeman spoke with journalists ahead of the 1/8 final match of the 2024 European Championship with Romania. Quote from the Dutch official UEFA website.

" It's all lyrics. We take Romania seriously and know that we can play better than in the previous match. From now on you need to start from yourself.

The first match was disappointing. Especially the first half. We didn't play aggressively enough. We focused our respect on this, and the graves did their best in training. The offensive margin will show in tomorrow's match.

I expect that Rumani is going to attack even more aggressively. The stinks are physically strong, which gives them an advantage in defense, and is even more dangerous in “standards”.

The team becomes more stable due to its compact structure and short pressing. Mi pratsyuєmo nad tsim.

The match with Austria had a lot of action. This gave the Austrians a feeling of pride, and we became a gateway.

The Netherlands are a proud people. We should play good football and win. We know that this will not happen forever, but we are seriously considering Rumunia. We know what to look for. We know that we need to make up for the last match, and we want to make up for it,” Koeman said.

Previously, Romania head coach Jordanescu spoke about the match with the Netherlands.
