Former Dutch national team player Berry van Arle said what he thinks about the match of his country's national team with Romania in the 1/8 finals of Euro 2024.
Berry van Arle"Everyone says that we are lucky that our opponent in the 1/8 finals was Romania, but I do not agree with this. I would have preferred to play against England. In the last three games this team showed nothing, was at a very low level. England has a weaker team than Romania, which has shown itself very well at this Euro.
It will be a very difficult match for the Netherlands. It is important for the Dutch team to consider that the passion of teams like Romania, Turkey or the Czech Republic also needs to be countered additionally. If you don't do that, you will lose.
I don't think we are the favorites in the upcoming match. Romania played very well in the group stage, which can't be said about the Netherlands. But the fact that we are not favorites can be an advantage," Arle Sportnieuws quoted Sportnieuws as saying.
