In the UEFA Euro quarter-finals, the Netherlands scored two goals in six minutes in the second half to ultimately defeat Turkey 2-1 and advance to the semi-finals. After the match, Dutch captain Virgil van Dijk spoke to the media.
Van Dijk said, “We started well, both in terms of possession and when they had the ball. Then we became careless and lost the ball at crucial moments, this happened a few times. Despite some errors during the game, we didn’t collapse because of them. In the second half, we knew we had to stay calm and take our chances, and eventually, we did that very well.”
“When you see how everyone reacted and worked together, we can honestly say ‘we gave our all.’ We fought tooth and nail with tackles and saves to secure the victory. Now it’s time to recover and prepare for another tough match. I also believe that each one of us will be ready for the semi-final.”
