Euro: Group C: Netherlands vs. Ukraine, 6/13/2021

I dunno; I don't see this as a lucky win for the Netherlands. The Ukraine goals were kind of out of nowhere and the Netherlands had basically all the chances otherwise. It would have been more unlucky had they not won (and I'm not a fan of the current set-up/team). If the Netherlands are going to do anything they need Frenkie, Gini and Memphis to continue to be on top of their games because they're going to have to carry that team in its current iteration.

A little respect for Ukraine. They had some chances throughout the game and overall played really well I think. The Dutch just happened to be even better. I'll be rooting for both going forward.

Eh? The majority is very pessimistic and this weak ass performance only enhanced that. No one expects them to reach very far.

He often play as a midfielder in the NT. It's his primary post, playing in defense in the City because of Guardiola.

The only reason Zinchenko is known as a left back is because Mendy can't stay healthy.

Weghorst is a joke.

This aged well haha. He's slow and clumsy in his movement, but he's got goals in him.

This Mykolenko seems like he really sucks

Single handedly lost the game for Ukraine. He came into the EC with a good reputation too.

Why would this change anything? Pavard scored a goal in the WC too.

So? Pavard is a really good player as well. Not the most elegant player either but this isn't figure skating.

Weghorst is not a really good player and the Netherlands have many better options for that position. Him scoring a gifted goal doesn't change that as your post would imply trying to get some kind of gocha moment.

Not really...

Can't wait for Belgium to choke in the 1/8 finals though. You have been so arrogant against the Dutch recent years now that we have a bit of an average squad. But your time is almost up, while we just get started. last chance..

Ontopic: the game vs Ukraine was pretty decent but dont see us get past the QF
