At 03:00 a.m. Beijing time on July 7, the 1/4 finals of the European Cup will stage a battle that attracts attention, with the Orange Army Netherlands facing the strong Star and Moon Army Turkey.
The total value of the Dutch team is 760 million euros, ranking sixth in the European Championship national team value list, and there are many world-class stars such as Van Dijk, Gakpo, Ake and Depay. However, the Dutch team's form in this European Championship is a bit slow, and in the first three group games, they only won 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss, barely finishing third in the group to qualify. However, in the 1|8 finals, the Dutch team seemed to have found the domineering of the uncrowned king, easily eliminated Romania 3:0, and entered the top 8 of the European Cup.
The total value of the Turkish team is only 303 million euros, which is less than half of the value of the Dutch team, but their performance in this European Championship is quite good, with 2 wins and 1 loss in 3 games in the group stage, the same number of points as Portugal, and they qualified together;
In terms of overall strength, the Dutch team naturally has a clear advantage; Judging from the past head-to-head records of the two teams, the Dutch team has won 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 meetings with Turkey, and also has a slight advantage. Therefore, considering all factors, if the Dutch team does not make mistakes in this game, the chances of winning are obviously greater than that of their opponent Turkey.
Judging from the offensive efficiency of the two teams, in fact, between the two teams, the Dutch team scored 7 goals in the first 4 games; Turkey also scored seven goals in their first four games. Therefore, the real advantage of the Dutch team over Turkey is in the backline. The Dutch team has an enviable defensive team, Van Dijk, Ake, De Vrij, De Ligt, these are all world-class defenders who are worth a lot of money.
Turkey's backline, on the other hand, is a little thin, with only a few second- and third-rate defenders in the ranks. So, we see that the Netherlands have more consistency due to their luxurious squad at the back, conceding just three goals in four games; Turkey, on the other hand, have conceded six goals in four games, twice as many as the Netherlands. The defensive ability of the two teams can be described as superior and inferior.
When the offensive efficiency of the two teams in the front court is not high, the competition is naturally the defensive ability of the two teams, that is, to see who is more tightly tied to the fence. Therefore, the more defensive Orange Shirt is naturally more likely to be the last to laugh. What do you think about this game, welcome to discuss in the comment area.
