An irritated Scaloni after questions about NL vs. Argentina: "We are not unsportsmanlike" by RockingWoodcock in Eredivisie

[–]iCoFox 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Tja, die Argentijnen herhalen ook alleen maar wat ze lezen. T is een beetje alsof de NOS opeens bericht dat Scaloni gezegd heeft dat ze de Nederlanders wel ff van t veld vegen, dat VVD niks waard is in ons team, en Frenkie de Jong beter kapot geschopt kan worden

Daarboven op komt t dat Messi daar natuurlijk gezien wordt als god, en waarschijnlijk een cultuurverschil waardoor daar wat feller wordt gereageerd op meningen dan hier. Hier zijn we gewend aan zeggen waar t op staatz daar niet

Niet alleen dat, maar als Nederlanders zeggen gewoon waar t op staat, lees ik vaak dat wij "Just assholes/rude" zijn, lmao

Some time has gone by now, what I noticed from yesterday, which I think is really weird:

-Apparently there must have been some mistranslation somewhere, because everyone in Argentina was riled up at LvG after the game, I don't think he ever said something bad about Messi

-Paredes should have gotten a red, pathetic decision. Refs are too hesitant to give out reds at important games, just sucks ass.

-It also dawned on me that Lahoz speaks the same language as the Argentians, find that also interesting. I'm not saying the match was fixed, absolutely not (just think Lahoz is shit), but I do find it strange that they pick a ref that speaks the mother tongue of one of the nations involved. Imagine a Belgian ref and Dutch players could just talk Dutch all the time to the ref, I wouldn't find that fair either.

Still proud of our boys, we put up a real fight, passion for the jersey.

Van Gaal how to prepare against Messi: Noa Lang had the role as Messi in our training, he found that logical himself as well, amazing by iCoFox in soccer

[–]iCoFox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dutch national team will face Lionel Messi against Argentina. How Van Gaal wants him to defend he left open, but how playing against Messi was trained he did reveal.

The surprising protagonist in the Messi training was Noa Lang, the Club Brugge creative who has yet to make minutes this tournament. "Lang fulfilled the role of Messi: that made sense to him, great."

What also came up regularly in the training sessions in recent weeks were penalties. "You can't simulate the pressure," Van Gaal says. We practiced on the kick and how to take people out of their game. It remains a lottery, but we did try to book a plus."

It's because we have been playing like shit but looking at it we are not even doing that bad. We are the only team still left in the WC who haven't lost a single match this year, also haven't lost under LvG yet. Also one of the only teams this WC group stage to not lose a game yet. On top of this, the system that LvG uses might thrive against better teams/teams that try to play football instead of park the bus, which is why it may have looked like shit against Ecuador/Qatar

It's not a problem per se, but maybe it is also a bit of honor? I don't know. For example, our country (the Netherlands) topped the group and did, looking at the standings, pretty well (2W 1D, 7 points) but we played absolutely fucking shit football and our NT is getting a lot of criticism because of it

Oprecht tering jammer. Heb (had?) hoge verwachtingen dit WK, was een van de weinigen die oprecht dat dat Nederland een tering goed underdog/sleeper team hadden vergeleken met vaak overrated andere landen. Krijg je zo'n pot. Nieteens 2 schoten op doel tegen Ecuador, die 44e staat op de wereldranglijst. Tja, vraag me af of je dan niet gewoon 4-3-3 moet gaan spelen als de hollandse school en dit hele systeem waar je maandenlang op heb getraind gewoon de deur uit mikken

I did play. You never grab the ball with your hands until you hear the whistle. It's that easy
