With no suspensions, Dumfries, Malen, Schouten, and Veerman will miss next match if they get booked.
“Sometimes it’s difficult to explain why you play badly in one game and why you reach a high level in another. [Against Romania] The start was hard, but we eventually found our game and caused them problems. Maybe one critical point was that it took too long to score the second goal. The final result is always the most important thing. We’re Dutch, though, and we have to play well. The whole performance [against Romania] was outstanding,” said Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman.
