In the opening match at EURO 2024 against Poland, the Dutch team faced many difficulties. The “Orange Cyclone” held the ball 64% and shot 20 times but proved ineffective in finishing.
They had to wait until the 83rd minute to decide the match when substitute Wout Weghorts accurately scored a 2-1 victory.
Notably, coach Ronald Koeman became the focus of attention. The former Barcelona coach continuously picked his nose, then raised his hand to his mouth and sucked calmly in front of the television cameras.
Coach Koeman’s actions became a hot topic of discussion on social networks. Many people even compare Koeman to Joachim Low, former Germany coach.
Mr. Low often took similar actions when he was leading the German team.
3 points against Poland gives the Netherlands an advantage in the race to win tickets to the knockout round of EURO 2024. In the second match, the Netherlands will clash with France, while Poland meets Austria.
