“I will not continue to work as the head coach of the national team. This is my last game. I leave behind a great team. I have managed the national team for 20 games and we have never lost in that time and there is a reason.” It’s very painful to see how we left the tournament after doing everything possible to prevent that from happening.”

“We couldn’t find an idle player in possession in the first half. At halftime, I tried to reverse it with 4-3-3, 4-4-1-1 and then 4-. 4-2. Nothing to criticize the players. From 0:2 It’s great to win back,” said the coach.

Van Gaal, 71, took over the Dutch national team for the third time in his career in August 2021. The specialist previously coached the national team from 2000 to 2002 and from 2012 to 2014. He led the Dutch to bronze medals at the 2014 World Championships.
