Netherlands vs England: Head-to-Head Record
Netherlands and England have faced each other in 22 matches over the years. There’s hardly anything to separate the two teams as the Three Lions have registered six wins, nine draws and seven defeats. The first meeting between the two teams went back to 1935 with England winning the match 1-0 in Amsterdam.
This will be the fourth meeting between England and the Netherlands at a major tournament. The Dutch secured a 3-1 win at Euro 1988, courtesy of a hat-trick from Marco van Basten. It was followed by a goalless draw at the 1990 World Cup. Lastly, England registered a 4-1 win at the Euro 1996, thanks to braces from Teddy Sheringham and Alan Shearer.
Netherlands
The Netherlands, uncharacteristically were poor in the group stage of the UEFA Euro 2024 as they finished third in Group D behind Austria and France. The Dutch started with a 2-1 win over Poland followed by a 0-0 draw against France. However, Ronald Koeman’s men had a turnaround as they thumped Romania 3-0 in the round-of-16. They showed great character to comeback against Turkey in the quarterfinal, eventually winning it 2-1 to progress to the semifinal for the first time since 2004.
Cody Gakpo has been their standout performer in this tournament. While the backline of Virgil van Dijk, Stefan de Vrij, Denzel Dumfries and Nathan Ake have also stepped up in the knockout rounds. Even Wout Weghorst has been phenomenal from the bench for the Dutch.
England
England started with a drab 1-0 win over Serbia followed by two boring draws against Denmark and Slovenia in the groupstage of the UEFA Euro 2024. The Three Lions needed Jude Bellingham’s heroics to save them from getting knocked out against Slovakia in the round-of-16. They eventually won that match in extra-time. Southgate’s men proceeded to win 5-3 on penalties against Switzerland in the quarterfinal. England are desperate to avenge their Euro 2020 final defeat on penalties against Italy.
Jude Bellingham has been the standout performer for the Three Lions in midfield. However, the entire backline has shown great character and composure to restrict their opponents. They have conceded only three goals in five matches in this tournament.
