Why Arjen didnt play on last match?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #3 of 4 |
According to the website of the Parool, Van Basten wanted to 'remain sensible' and kept Arjen on the bench, as this Sunday's match is much more important.

Van Basten: "We have not taken into account the group results of
Mexico and Portugal earlier that day. The issue of bringing Arjen in anyhow, was not a major concern. We have to remain sensible.

Sunday's match is more important than this one. We had already qualified, so we did not have to force anything. From now on we will play another four matches, that is, if things go well. We cannot afford to make any mistakes then, as that will result in our elimination.

Everyone has been able to see how strong
Argentina is. They are great opponents and the top contenders in the world. They kept us busy, but we have offered good competition and managed to keep a clean sheet. We are satisfied with the ultimate result."


Sneak preview the all-new Yahoo.com. It's not radically different. Just radically better.
