Netherlands defender Mickey van de Ven is hoping to start Wednesday’s Euro 2024 semi-final against England. But it will depend on coach Ronald Koeman’s decision.
‘We analysed the whole match (against Turkey) with the group, not just the last 10 minutes. To discuss what went well and what we could improve. UFABET Although, yes, the end of the game showed the mentality of our team and how everyone can work together.’
Van de Ven also spoke about coming on as a substitute in the 2-1 win over Turkey. saying: ‘Obviously every player wants to be in the first team. But the role I have as a substitute means I just want to show what I can do every time I get the chance. ‘
The 23-year-old Tottenham Hotspur defender also spoke about the possibility of him starting against England forward Bukayo Saka in Wednesday’s semi-final. Saying: ‘I know Saka from Arsenal, I’ve played against him twice this season. It’s up to the coach if I start or not, that’s not my decision.’
Gakpo said he intended to raise his levels further. “I hope that, in the next game, we can show that everything will come together and we will be playing our best game.”
