Netherlands 0-1 Denmark: Danes do not understand death group

Krohn Dehli

The predominant orange in the stands betrayed the name of one of the two teams. The color of which is impregnated a stage when Holland jumps on the field can always expect a lot, because the means Oranje soccer, Attack, show, although in the last World Cup when they reached the final, we were surprised with a team that practiced rockier football, also open to not let your opponent think. One way or another, with a defined system and destabilizing players, the team of Van Marwijk presented in this Euro as a favorite, but again, Holland gave way to the unpredictability of its results with an unexpected loss to Denmark was able to handle a party and use their weapons to take the win 0-1 and move from being the stooge of the group of death to potential star.

From a selection in 1992 wrote one of the most striking pages in the history of the great tournaments of selections, one should not rely too much. If you also have in the bench as an old captain Morten Olsen, indeed. The veteran coach Danish, in office since 2000, won the game with his Dutch counterpart, who had the idea of ​​leaving the bench Huntelaar, one of the most efficient front of the season just ended. Possibly with the idea of ​​making happier Van Persie and Sneijder placing them in their respective positions: tip and playmaker. It could have gone well, but it was not the case. However, Holland's biggest problem was not in his attack, but in a midfield consisting of Van Bommel and De Jong, nonexistent when touched to look at the opposing goal.

It was common in plants not knowing what to do with the ball as any midfielder was looking for, so I had to look quickly to the line of attacking midfielders, if it was the case. At that moment I remembered Seedorf, who may be watching the game from the comfort of your home. And Denmark to his own: he left the office to the Netherlands and was concerned that anduvieran not very close to the goal of Andersen, and they succeeded. The success of this task had much to do the central couple, Agger and Kjaer (who has been in Rome's Olympic stadium and who sees) and the double pivot formed by Zimling and Kvist, that Sneijder did not allow room for comfort though was the highlight of their own. Exit to the contras was the offensive Danish resource although it did not shine Eriksen, the player with the highest number expected in this selection.

The ends, the eternal Rommedahl Krohn-Dehli and also the side Poulsen, who brought his own, took care of climbing gear when playing search Stekelenburg's goal, and Krohn-Dehli was who scored the surprising therefore that overtook Denmark when with a cut, slipped with unusual ease of two defenders to appear before the Dutch goal and recommend cassock. The Brondby player has the credentials to be well known that revelation that both like to see in these tournaments. The marker is no longer move throughout the match despite attempts by individual Robben, searching in vain for his eternal diagonal towards the center from the right, Afellay or Van Persie. Van Marwijk ushered Huntelaar and the picture was clear, but the goal never came. Upon entering the magnificent was after a pass with the outside of Sneijder, but Andersen was correct.

Some would advocate that the Netherlands had the ball repeatedly to take the match, but Denmark's victory is well deserved: they played their cards right and held off the Oranje in much of the game. The surprise would be their ticket to the quarter is a little closer. Meanwhile, the Netherlands now have to row against the tide and score against Germany and Portugal to find the way to the next round.

Van Marwijk options

Options on staff has and will have to check which chooses the Dutch DT at the next eleven, what seems clear is that something must change. Is the llegador Strootman and a playmaker like Van der Vaart, who played some minutes, but few options to exit the ball from the pivot. However, the former Real Madrid and know what it is to play media in Hamburg, and a midfield with Van Bommel in front of the defense and Van der Vaart and Sneijder ahead did not appear personally, something crazy. At the tip of the spear, nine Huntelaar, Robben and Van Persie right heeled to the left, as before, would be a formidable attack. The point is that Van Marwijk has always been faithful to 4-2-3-1, and change it now would be to modify all the work done. We will see in the next game against Germany, where the Oranje will not be allowed longer blind spots.
