Cody Gakpo said the Netherlands needed to give Wout Weghorst “a hug” after the substitute’s late winner secured an opening 2-1 victory at Euro 2024 over Poland on Sunday.The Dutch wasted a series of chances before striker Weghorst struck in the 83rd minute, just two minutes after coming off the bench.
“We were in control but we should be more organised. We should have made more use of our opportunities,” said Gakpo.“There were many fans, more than in Qatar ,” added Gakpo. “That’s great, they’re here for us and we’re able to face difficult times thanks to the supporters.” The 1988 European champions will face an even tougher outing against title favourites France next time out in Group D on Friday.
“It will be a totally different match against France. France have more qualities than Poland, they play with a different style, spaces will be different.Politics
