Euro 2024: Romania v Netherlands
Match Preview
Romania will hope to continue their remarkable progress at Euro 2024 by beating the Netherlands in the round of 16 tomorrow.
Edward Iordănescu’s men topped Group E, propelling them through to face a Dutch side that could only manage third place in Group D.
Iordănescu said: “I don’t know what we can do in the future but we are very pleased to have reached the next stage. We want to go as far as we can. We are facing a fantastic and very hard opponent. We all are aware of this. But we also know that we will do what we’ve always done: give everything on the pitch.”
The Netherlands have failed to shine so far although they did scrape through a difficult group that also contained France, Austria and Poland.
Striker Memphis Depay says the squad have held several discussions about where improvement is required and are now looking forward.
“The tournament is only starting now,” said Depay, who is a free agent after leaving Atletico Madrid.
“We must ensure that we learn from our mistakes. We had discussions and criticised each other and it is normal that there is friction if the results do not go as you want them to go. It’s logical that there will be irritations.
“But that’s behind us now. There’s a good spirit among the group.”
