Tough draw for surprise Group E winners

Romania’s reward for topping Group E is a tricky last-16 clash with Netherlands at Euro 2024.

Both teams finished with four points after three games but the Dutch only managed to secure third place in their ‘Group of Death’ following a defeat to Austria on Tuesday.

Romania have already exceeded expectations by reaching the knockouts but should now have the confidence that they can go deep.

An opening-day hammering of Ukraine set them on their way before losing to Belgium and sealing their progression with a mutually-beneficial draw against Slovakia.

Romania vs Netherlands is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off on Tuesday July 2, 2024.

The match will take place at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

Romania swapped out both their wingers for the Slovakia draw and competition is high between Ianis Hagi, Dennis Man, Florinel Coman and Valentin Mihaila as to who starts on Tuesday.

Koeman has been unable to settle on his best XI and even hooked midfielder Joey Veerman during the first half of Netherlands’ defeat to Austria.

Denzel Dumfries could return at right-back and there is competition between Donyell Malen, Xavi Simons and Jeremie Frimpong to complete the attack.
