Ronald Koeman (Netherlands):“France plays very compact, which is one of the reasons why they have become world champions.“We want to dominate the game, but they have a few players with lots of individual qualities.

That is why it will probably be more difficult tomorrow than in Paris.”Ronald Koeman’s side will top the group with victory tonight and a win in Germany on Monday2
