On July 3, 2024, the 1/8 finals of the European Championship ushered in two exciting matches, with the Netherlands beating Romania 3-0 and Turkey narrowly beating Austria 2-1 to successfully advance to the quarterfinals. These two games not only showed the strength of the strong team, but also showed the tenacity and hard work of the dark horses who performed well in the group stage.
The Netherlands, ranked 7th in the world, have performed well on the international stage many times in their history. However, their performances at the Euros, which have not been outstanding in recent years, are reaching the quarter-finals again after 16 years and mean a lot to the team and the fans. Romania, ranked 47th in the world, performed well in the group stage, but were difficult to resist in the face of the Netherlands' strong attack.
The performance of the Dutch team this time is really eye-catching, and it is the first time in 16 years that they have advanced to the quarterfinals of the European Championship, which is simply tearful! I have to say that their attack power this time is really nothing to say, especially that Gakpo, who is simply a fighter on the field, and every attack makes people's hearts beat faster. Did you see his precise shot? It's incredible! And Mullen's two goals after coming off the bench are simply a savior! It was really not easy for the Dutch team to make such a big breakthrough this time, and the fans applauded and cheered for them.
In comparison, the Romanian team performed well in the group stage, after all, they are not low in the ranking, but in the face of the Dutch attack, they are really a little unbearable. There are also many fans on the Internet who discuss this game, and some people say that although the Romanian team works hard, the opponent is too strong to resist at all. Some people also joked that the Netherlands came to take revenge this time, and the previous European Cup performance was not good, but this time it can be regarded as a justification for history. All in all, the performance of the Dutch team is really impressive, and we look forward to their success in the next games!
The Netherlands were in complete dominance in this game, and they were the center of attention thanks to Gakpo and Malen. Gakpo's brilliant breakthrough and precise shot were impressive, and every time he sprinted with the ball, the fans held their breath for fear that he would be intercepted by defenders. His stunning shot not only scored the Romanian goal, but also impressed all the spectators present. This kind of skill and calmness is worthy of the hallmark of a team at the top of the world rankings.
And Mullen's performance is not inferior to Gakpo. He came on as a substitute and showed a great attacking threat. He had two pinpoint shots that found the back of the net for Romania. Such a performance not only showed his strength and consistency, but also proved the depth and diversity of the Dutch team in attack. Mullen's goal was not just a display of skill, it was a serious test of the opposition defence, and every attack he brought a strong threat to the Romanian side.
Mullen, like Jadon Sancho, is known for his exceptional pace and goal-threatening approach. Their performance on the pitch is often a hot topic among fans. Mullen may come from a central striker, but unlike Sancho, he prefers to play in the middle. Whenever he gets an attacking opportunity, his first instinct is usually to try straight to the goal instead of opting to pass the ball to a team-mate. This attitude of facing the opposition goalkeeper directly shows his attacking mentality and confidence in his individual ability.
In the hot review of tennis, some fans commented on the difference between Mullen and Sancho. "Mullen's decisiveness on the pitch is one of his strengths. He always dares to face the opposition defence head-on, which makes him very reliable in crucial moments. A netizen named Football Encyclopedia said. His quick propulsion and the precision of his calm shots make him a great weapon for the Dutch team. Another netizen called Real Fan added: "Although he is not as skilled as Sancho in one-on-one dribbling, his attacking awareness and shot selection are quite good. We always expect him to break down the opposition's defence with his pace and power when it matters most. ”
However, there were also some fans who had reservations about Mullen's performance. 'He's probably not as technically as good as Sancho in one-on-one, which makes him a bit struggling at times when he's pressing.' A netizen named Football Observer expressed his opinion. "While his pace is impressive, he still looks a little thin when handling the ball at times. If he could have strengthened his technique a little more, he would have been more comprehensive. "This in-depth analysis of the details of the players shows the high expectations and exacting standards that fans have for the key players of the Dutch team.
Overall, Mullen is different from Sancho, but his role and contribution to the Dutch team is irreplaceable. His pace and shooting ability bring important attacking threats and changes to the team. With every appearance, he became the focus of the fans' attention and was an important pillar of the Dutch team's victory in the European Championships.
The Dutch win was more than just a win, it was a response to the disappointing performances of the past 16 years. They have shown their ambition and quality in this tournament and have shown their true competitiveness on the international stage. This kind of victory is not only the lead in the scoreline, but also the result of the long-term hard work of the entire team and coaching team. Their performance not only made the fans cheer, but also made the whole Dutch country proud and proud.
In this match, every player in the Dutch team showed excellent technique and tenacious willpower. Every time they attacked, they showed the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the team. This is not only a victory, but also an important milestone for them in their entire European Championship journey. The Dutch team did show the style and quality of a top team in this game, and every one of their players deserved praise and applause.
Austria, ranked 25th in the world, are seen as one of the dark horses of the tournament after a strong performance in the group stage. However, Turkey narrowly defeated their opponents 2-1 and advanced to the quarterfinals thanks to the excellent performances of Güller and Demiral. Turkey's tactical adjustments at key moments and the display of the mental qualities of the players made them an impressive highlight of the tournament.
The quarter-finals have all been selected, and the next competition will be even more intense. Spain will take on Germany, Portugal will take on France, Switzerland and England will face each other, while the Netherlands will take on Turkey. Each team has its own unique strength and tactical characteristics, and they will compete for further glory in the upcoming matches.
The tournament's highlights include Spain's penalty shoot-out victory and Turkish goalkeeper Gunnock's brilliant save at a crucial moment, all showcasing the composure and skill of the players. Behind each game is a wealth of tactical analysis and psychological confrontation, which together make up the charm of the European Cup.
