Meanwhile in Dortmund, the man behind the mask is ready for action as Kylian Mbappé prepares for his first start since France‘s opening game with Austria. Will he become their first player to hit the target at this tournament?
2024-06-25T15:35:26Z
Koeman has added motivation for keeping the Oranje at the summit with not only a last-16 meeting against hosts Germany to avoid but also on the 36th anniversary since he was part of their triumphant side that won EURO 1988, fittingly in the same country as this summer’s tournament. Will the omens shine for them again?
2024-06-25T15:30:42Z
With top spot still up for grabs in Group D, Ronald Koeman isn’t leaving anything to chance. The Netherlands head coach has been having his say pre-match in Berlin.
🗣️ – Koeman: “We are not here to calculate, we are here to win the group. We want to win this game. I also won’t be following the France game, we just want to beat Austria.” pic.twitter.com/5ysW8cLLGp

On paper France’s clash with Poland later should be straightforward but one stat stood out when doing some reading earlier today – in their previous eight major tournaments, France have failed to win any of their final group matches. It’s a run that stretches all the way back to World Cup 2006!
