EUROPE:
World Cup – Qualifiers
Match
start: 18:00 (GMT+2)
Smashing
defeat of the Holland national team on Stade de France (4:0) has
raised storm of protest in Holland. Thousands of fans demand from the
management of the football union immediate dismissal of the chief
coach Dick Advocaat and returning of Danny Blind. Only three round
are left before the qualifiers will finish and the World
vice-champions are taken now the 4th
line:
France
– 16, Sweden – 13, Bulgaria – 12, Holland – 10 …
Further
horizons of Clockwork Orange
It
is obvious that the former head coach of Zenit St. Petersburg and
Russia national team on EURO 2012 won’t be dismissed just before
another official match. Also, all football players who were named
previously will stay in the bid.
But
if Arjen Robben, Wesley Sneijder, Quincy Promes, Georginio Wijnaldum
and other demonstrate the game that was shown in Paris, then
Netherlands national team will be renewed.
The
left matches
Prior
to the 8th
round the 2010 World vice-champions need 6 points in order to catch
the national team of France and also need three points to reach the
second place. Also the team of Dick Advocaat has to play three
matches against the national team of Bulgaria (on the 3rd
of September), Belarus (the 7th
of October) and Sweden (the 10th
of October).
It
is clear that Clockwork Orange can forget about the direct berth to
the FIFA World Cup Russia 2018. But for the second place this team is
still able to fight.
Match
prediction
And
what about the team of Hristo Stoichkov? Bulgaria in Sofia has won
over Swedes (3:2) during the 7th
round. But you shouldn’t forget that after Zlatan Ibrahimović’s
departure Tre Kronor has become a middle level team.
And
that is why the home victory of the white and greens won’t become a
sensation. But if the Bulgarians manage to get some points from the
hosts of Amsterdam ArenA, it would be something great. Still, it is
hard to believe in such possibility.
