Key Players: Lieke Martens, Vivianne Miedema and Victoria Pelova
-
Lieke Martens, who will transfer to PSG from Barcelona in next season, had produced 18 goals and 15 assists in this season, she is definitely one of the best female strikers in the world.
-
The-29-year-old Dutch was the winner of Ballon d’Or of women’s football in 2021, awarded by Tuttosport.
- Lieke Martens has been a world-class forward since she came out of nowhere and joined the team of Barcelona in 2017. She will carry Netherlands to go as far as they can.
-
Vivianne Miedema, another top-class forward of women’s football, plays for Arsenal since 2017, after she left Bayern Munich.
-
A young talent who earns her reputations very early, also has a correct attitude towards hard working.
-
Also, she is the top scorer of all time in Women’s super league, with 87 goals so far.
-
Victori Pelova’s breaking into the current Netherlands team is by no means easy but Pelova managed it before she turned 20.
-
She could be the X factor of the Dutch frontline, as one of several exciting attacking talents at Ajax.
Manager: Mark Parsons
-
35-year-old Mark Parsons could be a young coach to create something great in major competitions in Women’s EURO 2022 this time, even though a lot of professionals thought he was not able to reach the same height as Sarina Wiegman, the former coach of Netherlands.
-
Mark Parson has gained managerial experience with Chelsea reserves and later coached in the USA to lead Portland Thorns to honors.
Pedigree
-
The Dutch had never contested a major final until 2017, when they triumphed on home soil. And they created an equally excellent result when they were runner-up to the United States at the 2019 Women’s World Cup.
-
The reigning champions should be able to cause some serious troubles to the top teams, even though they were not regarded as the No.1 seed.
-
Netherlands was not a major force in Women’s European football until they made it to the semi-finals in Women’s EURO 2009, which surprised many fans.
- Now they will try to keep making history in Women’s EURO 2022.
