    Im dutch and its kinda our nature to have a bit of a superiority complex and same goes for the british. We always think we are better than everyone else but in reality its a miracle both England and the Netherlands have made it to the semi finals. Some fairytale luck. Both sides have good and several weak points. Its going to be a interesting game and who can expose and exploit the other sides weakness the most will win. Good luck to both nations but i hope we win ofc ;)

    I’m Norwegian and my impression is that Southgate is a tactical genius.The way he has drilled his players into their sideways/ sideways / backwards passing game is totally admired by all the other managers. To have some of the best forward players in the world and still manage to hardly score any goals is almost perfection. Go Southgate.

      What can be said in our favor is that Southgate hasn't made England press high up the pitch in a single match. Our only good moments have come when were allowed to play our own game, cus that's what our players ARE good at. Unless Southgate seriously changes his approach, they'll play right into our strengths.

    From a Dutchman can I please be 1st to congratulate the Brits ? Hope you beat Spain....England deserve it just for English football atmosphere in all the leagues.....brilliant tradition/stadiums/supporters 😀.

    I'm Dutch and this guy is talking from where the sun doesn't shine. The Netherlands are just as awful as the English; it will still be a historical match!

      i'm afraid the defence is like our cheese we got so incredible lucky with the cards and players still on the pitch to kick in all desperation the balls away. That should be fixed but not enough time.

    Being the boss of the one and only Dutch football expert Valentijn Driessen doesn't make you an expert yourself. Next time: phone Valentijn and you will get a far more realistic view.

    He’s incredibly vein and confident given that Holland haven’t played particularly well either and haven’t performed well at a major tournament for 1,000 years. Let’s see what happens

      Only team not to lose a match in the last world cup. Lost on penalties against the eventual champions. No too shabby.

    In the end...probably Spain will win it but mostly France due to their experience and determination!

    Dutch fans are the best fans any team could hope for. They have so much fun there, even the competative fans are having fun with the orange army.

    if u think being closer to the stadium is gonna matter IN the stadium you're insane, ask my Dad, he lives in England and hasnt missed a knock out match in over 30yrs

    Never heard of this man as a Dutch person. Back to reality: England with Saka, Kane, Bellingham, Palmer, and Foden has world-class players. I estimate a 70 percent chance of winning for England. Our run to the semi-finals so far has only been helped by our "weaker" opponents.
