Euro 2012 preview: Group of Death begins
June 9, 2012 Leave a comment
Netherlands vs. Denmark
Noon ET, TSN2
What to watch for:
The Oranje dispatched Denmark 2-0 at the 2010 World Cup, and this time the outcome could be even more one-sided. The Dutch strolled through their qualifying campaign, led by Klaas-Jan Huntelaar’s 12 goals. Coach Bert van Marwijk has so many offensive weapons, he will bring Huntelaar off the bench, starting Arsenal’s…
I believe the Group of Death comes down to which Dutch team shows up. Will the team that nearly won the World Cup and the team that scored almost 40 goals in qualifying show up? If so they could win it all. Otherwise, if the team that shows up is the same old choke artists expect them to get knocked out in group play, as Portugal and Denmark will be hot on their tails, and Germany will have long left them all in the dust.
