Koeman optimistic despite injuries, insists Netherlands have chance against Poland
- Injuries have affected key midfielders in the Netherlands squad
- Koeman remains confident in the team's abilities
- Netherlands faces Poland in upcoming match
Dutch manager Ronald Koeman emphasized the importance of having both Dutch and English qualities in a great team after Wout Weghorst's late win over Poland. Weghorst, who had a disappointing spell at Manchester United, made a significant impact in the game. Koeman faced a dilemma with Weghorst's performance overshadowing Memphis Depay's lackluster showing. Weghorst's confidence in scoring the winning goal was evident when he told his girlfriend to be at the stadium. Koeman believed his team should have scored more goals to be considered at the same level as Germany. The Dutch team is staying in Wolfsburg, with locals showing friendly competitiveness as they aim to reach the Euro 2024 finale in Berlin. Despite absences due to injuries, the Dutch team remains focused on their Euro campaign. Koeman has faced challenges in forming his ideal midfield partnership but remains confident in the squad's strength and experience.
