The Bayern Munich attacker has stressed that the Oranje have to put the negative feelings aside, and play together as a unit in their last Group B tie in Euro 2012 against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arjen-Robben-c6521 has insisted that Netherlands will have to put the negative feelings aside, and have to fight for their last chance against Portugal as a unit if they are make progression to Euro 2012 quarter-finals.
The Flying Dutchmen headed into European Championship in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 0-1 and 1-2 respectively have left the Oranje
on the brink of elimination from the competition.
Although, the 2010 FIFA World Cup runners-up have a very slim chance of progressing through to the next phase of the competition, Robben has expressed confidence that his side will manage to secure their place in the knock-out
round if they put aside their big egos.
The Oranje will make progression to the next phase of the competition if they manage to defeat Portugal by two-goal margin while the Germans record a win over the Danish Dynamite in their respective match.
“It's very difficult for us in this group, because there are just too many big egos. After the World Cup they may have become even bigger. That makes it hard for us. If you want to accomplish something together, you have to put
egos aside. I assume that the Germans will win. Now it's important to put negative thoughts aside and fight for our last chance together”, the Bayern Munich attacker was quoted as saying to the KNVB official website.
Since the Oranje’s first defeat at Euro 2012 against the Danes, reports in Dutch media have been indicating that many players are not happy with the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 head coach, Bert van Marwijk.
However, the highly-rated winger has insisted that any squabble should be put aside while stressing that one has to accept whatever the role is being given to you by the coach.
“When you are out of the starting eleven, you are allowed to be angry and you can be angry. That is normal. But when the game begins, you have to stick with the team. You have to accept it or go home”, Robben concluded.
Netherlands will take on Portugal on June 17.
