After a smooth and successful series of qualifying matches practice, can finally show what the Orange Monday on the world stage is worth. Denmark was the first opponent in Johannesburg.
Of the 29 matches so far by both countries against each other played, won eleven Netherlands and Denmark eight. The goal difference is 57-42 in favor of Orange.
Twice found the two countries met on a great tournament. That happened at the European Championships of 1992, when Orange defended his title in 1988. The Danes won the semi-finals on penalties and then the final battle to defeat Germany.
In the group stage of Euro 2000 Netherlands won 3-0 at De Kuip.
Robben and Bendtner missing
The just recovered from his hamstring injury to Arsenal will still rest and Orange Denmark will probably play without a striker Nicklas Bendtner, who is not fit as a fiddle after a groin injury.
Bendtner is likely to be replaced by Jon Dahl Tomasson Feyenoord, who have already had more than two years has not scored for the national team.
