The Dutch team started this tournament with two draws, first a 0-0 draw against the Belgians, and then a 1-1 draw with the Portuguese. There is no reproach for the team, as both opponents are of a high level. However, the current situation requires playing solely for victory. The stands will support the opponents, so the Dutch must apply pressure while maintaining concentration, as the Georgians know how to capitalize on mistakes.
Looking at the group composition, one can only sympathize with the Georgians, as there were such giants that even earning points would be challenging. The team’s only trump card was the factor of their home arena, which is why they reached the final stage without going through qualifiers. In the first match, they managed to defeat the powerful Portuguese with a score of 2-0, which became the main sensation of the tournament’s first round. The match against Belgium was more challenging, as the Georgians were trailing 0-2 after the first half. However, they performed well in the second half, with two goals scored by fresh substitutes, ultimately securing a 2-2 draw. Currently, the Georgians are leading their group, and if Belgium does not defeat Portugal in the final round, the Georgians will advance regardless of their own match result.
