Netherlands vs Austria: Ronald Koeman's Tactical Approach For UEFA Euro 2024

As well as being the highest-scoring defender in history, Koeman is a man with immense tactical knowledge. He returned to manage Holland at the start of 2023 after it was announced Louis van Gaal would retire. His life back in the dugout with the team wasn't easy, as he lost his first match 4-0 to France after going 3-0 down within 21 minutes.

However, he eventually helped them qualify for Euro Cup Germany. The 61-year-old likes to organize his team with a defensive mindset. Some might call it pragmatic as he defends with minimal space between the lines, but that's often needed for international football. When he joined Barcelona, he described his methods on the club's website: I’m a coach who likes his teams to be disciplined and well organized. I like to dominate games.

The Dutch like attacking football. I like to be direct and communicate well with my players. The Netherlands confirmed their final squad for Euro 2024 at the end of May. Europa League-winning captain Marten de Roon and Champions League finalist Ian Maatsen dropped from the 30-man provisional squad alongside Nick Olij and Quinten Timber.

Despite Jurgen Klopp's side failing to win the Premier League, Van Dijk impressed consistently by using his pace, strength and aggression to dominate attackers. Alongside him, Frenkie de Jong will be operating consistently in the middle of the park. The Barcelona star hasn't had the season many would have expected, showcased by just two goals in La Liga, but you can never write the midfielder off.

When he's at his best, he can dictate the tempo of matches and make his team 'click'. De Jong will be key in helping to get the ball up front, where Cody Gakpo will be featured. The 25-year-old registered 13 assists in the Premier League this season, and his versatility allows Koeman to use him in several positions. He is expected to start in Germany.
