De Gelderlander reporter Lex Lammers has commented on the Dutch team's performance at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Van Gaal's team showed only the fragments of the great style of Cruyff's team. In Qatar, our national team was remembered for that scuffle with Argentina and the remarks of the old man van Gaal. As for the game itself, I would like to forget it soon. It made me sick and I wanted to poke out my eyes.
