Fortunately, Koeman remembered "Wowo Brother"! Can such a Dutch team be trusted? He overtook the score in 138 seconds

Last night and this morning, three more games were played in the first round of the European Cup group stage, and the results were: Poland 1-2 Netherlands, Slovenia 1-1 Denmark, and Serbia 0-1 England.

All three matches have their highlights, such as the match between Slovenia and Denmark, where we welcomed the return of the "God of Love" - ​​three years ago in the European Cup, Denmark's core player Eriksson suffered a cardiac arrest during the game, attracting the attention of fans around the world. In this match, Eriksson started and returned to the European Cup after three years;

The encounter between Serbia and England was the first show of the "most luxurious" team in this European Cup - England has the highest value in Europe, but played the most economical score since the start of the tournament. However, judging from the progress of the game, the Netherlands's comeback victory over Poland in the final stage of the game was undoubtedly more spectacular and dramatic.

The world's No. 7 team faced the world's No. 28 team, especially the No. 28 team Poland lost Lewandowski. "We must win another 4-0 game!" After the last warm-up match, the Dutch fans were so confident. Poland was originally the fourth-tier team in Group D, and only got on the last train through the play-offs. In theory, it was the weakest team, and its top star was injured, but the reality was that Koeman's team almost capsized and was poured cold water by the "weakest opponent" right from the start.

Poland played against the Netherlands in the first round of Group D of the 2024 European Football Championship held in Hamburg, Germany on the same day.

The Netherlands suffered a heavy blow in the 16th minute, with Dutch striker Buxar scoring with a header to break the deadlock. Although the Netherlands had 66% possession of the ball and 21 shots throughout the game, and even though they equalized the score in the 29th minute of the first half, the goal that reversed the score did not come until the 83rd minute. Weghorst, who came on as a substitute for only 2 minutes, helped the Netherlands team to reverse the score with his first touch of the ball. At this time, it was only 138 seconds since Weghorst came on as a substitute. These 138 seconds also made Weghorst the player with the shortest time to score a goal after coming on as a substitute for the Netherlands team.

On the same day, the Netherlands defeated Poland 2-1 in the first round of Group D of the 2024 European Football Championship held in Hamburg, Germany.

Weghorst has scored 7 goals in the last 11 national team matches. Such efficiency is terrifying, especially considering that Weghorst is a substitute player most of the time. One has to sigh that having this lucky player makes head coach Koeman much happier.

"Weghorst should have been on earlier!" This was the point that most fans complained about after the game. Indeed, Koeman's command and use of players in this game did have major problems. Even though the Netherlands team won 7 of the last 8 intercontinental competitions, it was still difficult to cover up the problem of the Netherlands' inefficient offense. Among them, center forward Depay was the first choice for fans who "should have been replaced earlier". As a long-time offensive pillar of the team, Van Gaal called him "one of the few top players in the Netherlands" during the Qatar World Cup. However, in this game, Depay showed his problems of dribbling, shooting and losing the ball in the 81 minutes he played. In the whole game, Depay shot 4 times without a single shot on target, lost the ball 10 times, and tried to dribble 4 times with a success rate of 50%.

On the same day, the Netherlands defeated Poland 2-1 in the first round of Group D of the 2024 European Football Championship held in Hamburg, Germany.

Fortunately, Koeman finally remembered "Brother Wowo" Weghorst in the 81st minute. In the 2022 World Cup against Argentina, he came on as a substitute and scored twice to drag the game into overtime. Weghorst became famous in one battle, and the verbal conflict with Messi in the post-match interview earned him the nickname "Brother Wowo".

Although he was never the main striker of the Dutch team in the Koeman era, Weghorst always managed to seize the few moments and prove his strength with goals. In this game, he received an assist from Ake and scored with a low shot from the front point - his performance of scoring as a substitute in 138 seconds also set a record for the fastest goal scored by a substitute in the history of the Dutch team.

But in the next game against France, can the Netherlands still be so lucky to win after wasting so many opportunities? This game requires Koeman to reflect too much.

In the 11th inning of the first set of the game, Zhang Shuai served. At 15-15 o'clock, Zhang Shuai's return ball was clearly an out of bounds ball, but it was deemed out of bounds by the referee. After a long unsuccessful argument with Zhang Shuai, he called for the competition director, but the latter did not look at the ball marks, only communicated with the referee, and later refused Zhang Shuai's request. At the same time, the opponent Tote even wiped off his shoe prints with his foot, and the audience on site booed Zhang Shuai in bursts. In the end, Zhang Shuai, whose emotions were affected, missed the game point, conceded three goals in a row, and was broken by the opponent. Crying in anger
