You must admit that luck was a large part in that victory. Don't get me wrong, I'm bais af and Croatia is a great team who should have beaten Portugal imo, but if you look at the goals, there was definite luck involved imo.
Game tonight was good. A bit harsh to concede 5 goals after having such a strong defense in the tourney so far. Still I can't fault the boys, scoring 2 against France is good enough for me. It was hard enough trying to scream louder than like 60k french fans, not sure if you could hear it on tv, but we were standing, clapping and yelling that entire match. Really glad how much support there has been from our fans. It's been expensive af and I'm broke lol, but it's been worth every minute. Hopefully we'll do as well in russia in 2018. Thanks for the support from many of you as well :D
you were good to hear on tv, huge respect to you guys

Don't forget the group in wich they qualified either. It should have been an easy group for Oranje to qualify in, but they came first and were easilly the least experianced team there.
Their performance against France was solid too. Too bad they just were a bit too slow in midfield sometimes, and France played out their chances very well.
their development is just amazing
in the 2008 qualifiers iceland lost 3:0 to fucking liechtenstein
and finished last in the group
8 years later they rekt the dutch, left penaldo behind them in group stage and sent austria and england packing
truly remarkable
