Can Holland breakthrough the Euro 2016 qualifying phase?
Yes, the Dutch football team is now in extreme difficulty. Can Holland overcome all the difficulties?
Holland staring Euro 2016 failure in the face and there’s nothing Arjen Robben can do
The Dutch have fallen some distance from the success of their World Cup campaign and are relying on others slipping up to even make the playoffs.
It is only 458 days since Holland stood within a penalty shoot-out of their second successive appearance in a World Cup final but after tonight, on what will be Robin van Persie’s 100th international game, some of the finest players in Dutch football history could already be free to make their holiday plans next summer.
Blind has overseen two losses in two matches in charge
With 24 teams in the finals, qualification for the European Championship has theoretically never been easier but the fate of Holland, the champions in 1988, is already out of their hands. They have recently fallen from their previously constant position this century inside the top 10 of the Fifa rankings but of greatest concern as they prepare for their final two matches of Euro 2016 qualifying, against Kazakhstan tonight and the Czech Republic on Tuesday, is that they are currently fourth in Group A. Iceland and the Czech Republic are already out of sight but Holland now need one of these two teams to take points off Turkey over the next four days to have any chance even of a play-off place.
Add in the absence through injury of Ron Vlaar and Kevin Strootman and the very real possibility of Holland missing a first European Championship for 30 years becomes even more understandable. Robben, who only returned to training at Bayern Munich on Wednesday following his thigh injury, will again be a spectator over the coming week. “These two deciding games, I cannot do anything,” he says. “It’s just wait and pray and hopefully Turkey makes a mistake, we win our two qualifying makes, and we can make the play-offs.”
A组：冰岛跟捷克已经提前晋级，拉脱维亚跟哈萨克斯坦已经出局，土耳其跟荷兰争夺剩余的一个席位。目前还剩两轮欧预赛，荷兰仅积10分排名小组第四，落后第三的土耳其2分。荷兰剩余两场对阵哈萨克斯坦跟捷克，土耳其则面对捷克跟冰岛。荷兰一旦再有闪失，那么他们很可能连附加赛的资格都捞不到；就算荷兰两战全胜，只要土耳其拿到至少4分，仍然可以力压橙衣军团参加附加赛。

荷兰悬了！下场要遭法国死磕 真进不了世界杯了
2018 WC qualification
荷兰虽然赢球但出线形势更不乐观了
世界杯预选赛，荷兰在主场兵不血刃地以5-0大胜卢森堡。但一场胜利之后，荷兰的局势却反而更危险了。法国客场1-2输给了瑞典，这样的话瑞典与法国同积13，都要比荷兰多3分。
目前在世界杯预选赛的积分榜上，荷兰6战积10分，只能排名第3位，与排名前两位的法国与瑞典各相差3分，追赶难度非常大，一有闪失很可能彻底与2018年的世界杯说拜拜了。
首先从赛程上来说，荷兰下一轮将迎来生死战。他们将在客场挑战法国队，如果这场比赛不能取胜的话，等于宣告了荷兰队的出局。但谈何容易，法国是去年欧洲杯的亚军，主场战斗力超强，并且在争夺小组第一的前提下，法国一定会全力争胜。荷兰想要逼平对方，甚至是战胜对手，这将是一次巨大的挑战，同样也是生死战。
其次，法国与瑞典这两个竞争对手已经逐渐脱颖而出。两队之间的两场已经结束，双方各在主场赢了一个2-1，接下来的对手都比较羸弱，比如像白俄罗斯与卢森堡这样的队伍，基本上拿3分是不成问题的。荷兰最后一场比赛是在主场迎来瑞典队，从目前的形势来看，这场比赛是否还有意义，都要打上一个问号。
荷兰本来的如意算盘是，让法国一支独秀，一路领先，而自己慢慢地追赶瑞典队，然后最后一轮比赛在主场战胜瑞典，从而反超对手。但谁都没想到，法国队却在这时候掉链子，法国与瑞典两队齐头并进，这是荷兰队始料未及的。球队的形势也一下子被推入到了绝境。
即使把所有的事情往最好的方面去想。荷兰最终拿到了小组第2位，这也并不意味着橙衣军团就能够进军世界杯。世界杯预选赛的规定是这样的，9个小组第2位挑出8个成绩较好的，然后再进行4场淘汰赛，决出最终的4个名额。所以，荷兰即使奇迹般的获得小组第二，还有一个很大的障碍等着他们去跨越。
在这届荷兰队当中，罗本与斯内德都已经33岁以上的，如果这次预选赛不能突围的话，这也意味着罗本与斯内德这一批荷兰老将，将彻底告别大赛的舞台。

Humiliated Holland fail to qualify for Euro 2016 Holland have failed to qualify for the 2016 European Championships. A 2-3 defeat at home to the Czech Republic, coupled with Turkey’s 1-0 win over Iceland, means that the nation that finished third at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil will miss out altogether on next summer’s tournament. It’s an astonishing outcome for one of Europe’s powerhouses, who were crowned European champions in 1988 and were bronze medallists in 1992, 2000 and 2004. The last time the Dutch were absent from the European Championships was 1984. To make matters worse, Euro 2016,… Read more »

Beaten – perhaps fortuitously – by an organised Denmark in the first game,… Read more »
