“Flying Netherlands trio” Marco van Basten – Frank Rijkaard – Ruud Gullit helped the home team dominate the old continent. The Netherlands team’s best achievement was the championship in 1988.
On the day of Europe’s biggest football event three years ago, the Tulip nation stopped at the 1/8 round. Matthijs de Ligt’s disastrous red card caused the Netherlands team to be suddenly defeated by the Czech Republic by two white goals.
