Though one weird thing about the Dutch is that they always seem to underperform against the "lesser" nations and perform equal to or better than some of the top nations.
Because sitting back and countering is easier than dominating play and defending against counters

Why do you lot even want to avoid us. We're no better than Slovakia :lol:
Historically you've been good enough to have some remaining fear factor associated with you, no matter how undeserved it is. That fear factor will make Gareth shit himself even more than normal, and whenever Gareth shits himself the loser is ultimately football.

So not only does Southgate get the easier half of the draw for the 4th tournament running, he also gets Slovakia in the next round. His luck will never end

He has a point. He's clearly being held, preventing him from moving towards the ball

I thought shirt tugs like that were automatic pens these days? I remember us all joking that Chris Smalling was fecked going forward since he loved to do that.

Ronaldo's in the right there, to be fair. That jersey's on the verge of getting pulled clean off.

Last euro's and some qualifiers yeah, but we mostly go out against Portugal or Argentina in my mind.

It's based on which combination of groups the third placed teams come from.
I see that they’re split so there’s only two possible fixtures for each 3rd place team, but what needs to happen for them to move from one fixture to the other? I’m guessing Georgia moving above Slovenia moves them from one fixture to another. But not sure which way around.
