Brothers, the smell of gunpowder in the European Cup is getting stronger and stronger! This time it was Romania and the Netherlands' turn to play, and the styles of the two teams were very different, just like a tough guy meeting a genius, and sparks were flying!
Let's talk about Romania first, these lads don't have a few big stars, but they rely on unity to make the defense impregnable. In the group stage, the opponent played so aggrieved that he charged again and again, but he couldn't break through the Romanian wall. This is football, not alone, it is a victory fought by brothers together!
On the Dutch side, it's an old powerhouse, and the orange whirlwind is back! Depay, these strikers, have good footwork one by one, and scoring goals is like a bag. Not only are they sharp up front, but the midfielders are also able to control the tempo and de-pressure the backline. However, the Netherlands also have a soft underbelly, and when they encounter a quick counter-attack, the defence will occasionally show flaws, which they should be wary of.
In this matchup, the Netherlands looked more champion-looking, they played so smoothly, attacking wave after wave. However, Romania is not vegetarian either, their defense is not leaky, and the counterattack is as fast as an arrow, if the Netherlands is careless, be careful of capsizing in the gutter!
The Netherlands' attacking firepower and Romania's defensive resilience are all set to be exciting. If the Netherlands wants to win safely, they must be both offensive and defensive, and they must not only focus on attacking in front, but also follow behind. As for Romania, as long as you hold your position and bite hard when you counterattack, you may be able to counterattack. Personally, I feel like the Netherlands are going to win 3-1 or 3-0.
Then again, anything can happen with football. Although the Netherlands is strong, Romania's tough-guy spirit is also awe-inspiring. Who can have the last laugh, let's see in the stadium!
