NED vs CZR: The Netherlands are all set to play the Czech Republic in the Round of 16 matches in the European Championship 2020. The Netherlands have made it to the knockout stages by topping the group, whereas Czech Republic qualified after they finished as the third-best team in Group D.
In the group stage, the Netherlands were a ruthless side. They won all three games in the group stage, rounding off their final game with a 3-0 win. However, the team has to be aware of their clash against Ukraine. When it seemed like the Netherlands were winning the game at ease, the defensive frailties came to haunt. However, Dutch responded quickly to win the game 3-2.
On the other hand, Czech Republic endured a loss, drew a game and had one win to their name in the group stage. They defeated Scotland in the first game and registered only one point in the next two. It will be a cause of concern for the Czech Republic against a quality side like the Netherlands. The team will pin its hopes on the likes of Patrik Schick and Tomas Soucek who are having a great Euro 2020.
