The Oranje scored three fine goals against Greece while Robert Lewandowski again got Poland out of trouble. Serbia, for its part, came up against Hungarian efficiency.
Tops
Dutch attack on fire for half time
To easily dispose of Greece (3-0), the Netherlands delighted their audience in Eindhoven during the first 45 minutes. Marten De Roon first sublimated the evening with a beautiful recovery before the festival of Denzel Dumfries, decisive double passer for Gakpo and Weghorst. If the second act was very calm, it is mainly because Koeman’s men gave a lot from the kick-off. To the chagrin of the Greeks, completely overwhelmed by the speed and combinations of the Batavian attackers.
Robert Lewandowski, providential scorer
The Polish star continues to carry the selection on his shoulders. Against the Faroe Islands (2-0), the FC Barcelona striker scored two new goals, including a penalty. His 78 and 79th achievements (in 142 caps) in the national jersey could weigh heavily in the race for qualification. Author of a solid start to the season at Barça, Lewandowski did not slow down during the international break. He intends to bring his country to Euro 2024 in Germany.
Flops
The Serbian rate le car
In a group where Montenegro hopes to play spoilsports, Serbia missed their meeting against Hungary (1-2), in a stadium behind closed doors in Belgrade. Quickly in front of the score, Dusan Vlahovic’s partners lost their footing in a few minutes, conceding two goals in quick succession before the break. And they never knew how to react. If the qualification is not (still compromised), the Serbs will have to react quickly on Monday in Lithuania. To forget this unexpected bad step.
The weakness of Greece
On June 19 at the Stade de France, the Greeks held out against the French team for a long time before losing (1-0) on a penalty from Kylian Mbappé. Tonight in the Netherlands, the selection coached by Gustavo Poyet offered nothing for 90 minutes, both defensively and offensively. Admittedly, she was not starting favorite but had the opportunity to strike a blow in the group of the Blues. The Oranje were too strong in Eindhoven, it remains to be seen whether Greece will manage to raise their level in Athens, when they receive the Dutch and then France during the autumn.
