Head coach of the Netherlands national team Ronald Koeman commented on his team’s victory in the 2026 Emergency Selection match against Lithuania (4:0).

“We were confident that this would be a match in which we would play well from the first to the last battle and score a lot of goals. In the first half we were unlikely to score two, or even three goals. There were a lot of great moments, but there were a lot of bad ones. Ale zagalom tse bula good gra.

Malen has all the best qualities, especially if he plays on the flank. Someone has the speed and technology. And if it moves to the center, it is even more direct.

I told Simons and Reynders to go deep, close to Depay. Don't step back to try to grab the ball right away. And everything went well. We'll steal another time for the first one. Xavi was no longer safe and scored a great goal.

I'm making you happy.

I don’t want to make predictions for Mayday. I think we have a really great team and the competition for space in the warehouse is really great. We must understand that there are few moments in the selection cycle when we spent garni moments and glasses. We need to paint our team,” the UEFA press service quotes Koeman as saying..
