let's go to the european cup of nations, which was followed up to the final match with saud, ronald koeman's students. they won 2-1 and with this advantage they succeeded in the group. just one mistake left the swiss, who deserved to be in the semi-finals, with grief leave the friend's stadium. english. passing the law without victory. sovet's cheating on the hands of yakin in the way the defenders were arranged caused the meeting between england and switzerland in 90 legal minutes to be summarized in 5 minutes, i.e. 75-80, where first switzerland, then england with the goals of embolu and saka , brought the game out of zero. the first half of the game except for a few careless shots. he didn't even have a shot on target. but the story of overtime was different from the whole game. the shots made the game more interesting. rice's and billingham's shots made the englishmen in the stadium half-hearted, and in front of shaqiri, the swiss were the same. he pulled it and excited not only picfour fans but also fans. this the quarter-final stage of the copa america football ended with the eliminati

and i think that the second half that you saw was the good spell that ronald koeman did. made him more active when he came into the game. the dutch attack line was his golden talisman . gudigakpo, who was unique, scored a goal and became the best player on the field. he chased the ball. what he did was the ball that was going, of course, his play against the romanian defense was fantastic, but we can also talk more about romania. we expected much more from this team. their coach used to work in napoli. really , england is a pain in the ass of this unknown team their presence in the euros made them a great team , and i think we expected the same from romania , but i think the quality of the players of the dutch national team can also be pointed out. no , there was a very good romanian left defender who was given two cards. they are in front of the national team. i think his name was banco. he was not in this game and he was in the defensive position . the left side that mogosh had left was injured, vitani was brought into the game and the left side channel was completely a

ronald koeman, the former head coach of barcelona , ​​in an interesting comment , announced that theditions of real madrid are better than the barca team. he also said that if barça wants me, until laporte. as the management does not respond in any way. the problem with barca now is that people like me, xavi and messi are out of the club. barça must respect its legends . in the last few years, barça has not been able to compete. the transfer market database, which is one of the most reliable sources of valuation of football players in the world, has published the list of the most valuable ones, which are billingham, holland, vincius, mbappe and. foden 1st to 5th, some italian media close to inter divided the preparation of the wonderful spanish player mehdi tarmio and they say that inzaghi is very satisfied with the readiness of the iranian star of his team. this transfer season was the most expensive transfer with 62 million euros in the first practice of his new club, man united. cultural championship of basij of the country hosted by tehran is being held. the best of the competiti

started with a good moment, denis man shot above the goal, but in the 20th minute of the match ronald koeman's wards opened the scoring. cody gakpo moved from the wing and hit the goal with a powerful shot into the near corner. in the second. in the half, huck assisted, daniel malen doubled the advantage of the netherlands from his transfer, he had to aim at an empty net. compensated by the referee, malyn scored a double after his own solo pass. it is quite difficult, it is possible to understand, but for the dutch national team it is the first in 16 quarter-finals of the european championship. we remember, the dutch played in the final of the world cup, where spain conceded, so... they haven't played in the quarter-finals of the european championship for a long time, so all the quarter-final pairs have been formed, on july 5, that is, on friday, the hosts of the championship, the germans , will meet the spaniards in stuttgart , this match is definitely worth the final, and it's a shame that the grid is formed like this, spain, germany, a match that could become the color of the whole tourname

population in germany means it will be a loud and boistrous atmosphere, and netherlands coach ronald koeman will be key to their success. he's also been talking about the need to improve from the performances his side have put in so far. england, i think have scored. all the england, i think have scored. fill the big teams, they struggled a little bit in different matches to win it. even england scored in the last second. you have to fight for it, but the last one gave us a lot of confidence. we understand that we need to keep that level. translation: it need to keep that level. tuna/mom- need to keep that level. translation: , ., , translation: it will be a very secial translation: it will be a very special game _ translation: it will be a very special game for _ translation: it will be a very special game for me, - translation: it will be a very special game for me, my - translation: it will be a very | special game for me, my mother translation: it will be a very - special game for me, my mother is dutch, my father is turkish, so it will be a very special game for my family. i think a lo

and can i quickly say all the, dutch media and also ronald koeman moaning about that penalty.member 1993 don't we, when he blatantly pulled down david platt. maybe there's a bit of karma there sam. >> well, a bit of calm, but it's taken long enough to pay him back of course, because if that wasn't a sending off, i don't know what was a sending off. >> listen, people will debate whether it was a foul or not. in the end, the right man made the right decision. and whatever we say, the referee gave a penalty and that's the end of it. >> now, big sam, can i quickly ask you about the media hostility? you're a big name. you've had a lot of big stick in your time. southgate got a lot of stick during this tournament. i was one of them. you were two when those pint pots came on to that pitch. do you think actually that that hostility from the crowd, from the media helped to galvanise the unit? they've rallied around the manager . they've rallied around the manager. they formed a they've rallied around the manager . they formed a nucleus. manager. they formed a nucleus. and what we saw l

donyell malen here for the second, who scored twice in the final ten minutes of the game, putting ronald koeman's- it's the most difficult way. but we know that. but i think the whole performance today was outstanding. _ and that is what we need. to have a chance to continue in the tournament. - this is the level. if you go down in that level, i then we don't reach the final. they are also down to the last 8 at the copa america, and brazil might regret not finishing top of their group. they could only draw 1—1 with colombia in california, which means that they get a tough quarterfinal against uruguay, whilst colombia have panama. former leeds united forward raphinha handed brazil the lead with this marvellous free kick, but they couldn't wrap up the win, which would have seen them top the group. they'll also miss viniciusjunior in the quarterfinals, he's supended, and the brazil boss was really unhappy with a challenge on his star forward that he though should have been a penalty. costa rica needed results to go elsewhere to progress, but brazil getting a point means they miss out on the quarterf

ronald koeman who is the dutch manager i'm calling it koeman karma. i think this is going to be a thing. human karma is a thing. back in 1993, when england were qualifying for the world cup away against the dutch and it's the famous where graham taylor was on the, on the bench and or do i not like that? and it was there was a foul. koeman stopped basically david platt running into the box. it should have been a penalty. it was given us a free kick and he should have been sent off. so then koeman stayed on the pitch and scored the winning free kick at the other end. now all these years on, i never forgot steven. so come on karma is the words for the day and sometimes you get them, sometimes you don't. there's arguments. i've even had discussions at the office go, oh it definitely was a penalty. i'm like, i don't think it was. no, it wasn't a penalty. but quite frankly, who cares? it doesn't really matter because sometimes they're given , sometimes they're they're given, sometimes they're not. and we have not had luck over the years. if you think of all

sure over of the win with ten minutes to go donyell malen scoring twice, in a 3—0 victory to put ronald koeman'srounds. with all the football on at the euros at the moment, there's business being done in the premier league. chelsea have signed kiernan dewsbury—hall for 30 million pounds from newly promoted leicester city. the 25—year—old joins on a six year contract and will link up again with manager enzo maresca who joined chelsea this summer after winning the championship title with leicester last season. dewsbury—hall scored 12 goals and provided a further 12 assists last season. new from wimbledon now — and the two—time champion andy murray won't be playing in the men's singles this year, after having back surgeryjust 10 days ago. the 37—year—old, who won wimbledon in 2013 and 2016, was due to play tomas machac of the czech republic on centre court today. murray, who's planning to retire this year, is still set to play in the doubles at wimbledon with his brotherjamie. singles is always going to be a big ask, like i said a few days ago, it was unlikely i was going to be able to play. a givi

ronald koeman's side qualified for the last 16 as one of the best third placed teams. championship for 24 years. translation: holland are the favourites. - they have achievements, they have incredible players. they're worth about a billion. so they have experience of the knockout stages. but we have our own strengths. we have consolidated a good group, both in the human and sporting level, and we have a country behind us who need to support us. bit of premier league transfer news, tottenham have signed the leeds teenager archie gray. the 18—year—old, who can play in midfield or defence, was the championship's young player of the year last season as leeds narrowly missed out on promotion, losing to southampton in the play—off final. spurs have signed him for around £30 million on a six—year deal, with defenderjoe rodon going the other way for £10 million. lot's more on the bbc sport website or your bbc sport app, more reaction to andy murray pulling out of the singles draw in what will be his final wimbledon appearance, and the very latest on the second day of the champ

ronald koeman , and this evening.ed the press conference. and they're going to be flying in, believe it or not, flying in from holland to here later this evening and then. well, they're supposed to they're supposed to have a uefa press. it's mandatory, but it doesn't look as though they're going to have time to do it. so that's a bit of disruption from the dutch camp . camp. >> well, shame dennis bergkamp isn't still playing . he of isn't still playing. he of course, would have refused to get on a plane. long gone, of course. but anyway, back to , course. but anyway, back to, let's talk about tonight's game first. france, spain. france haven't had their goal scoring boots on. haven't quite got into into gear. spain looking very tasty though. so what's what's the, talk ahead of tonight semi—final i just think i think it's a 5050 game, really. >> i mean, we've all been moaning about england and gareth southgate as they won. it's even worse in france. so of course have got a much richer history in terms of success than w

and i have a bit of a grudge against the dutch manager, ronald koeman, because he was everton's managert was the start of a penod afraid it was the start of a period of not very good results for everton. sure, i want mr coleman, who's tells everybody i'm the most famous dutchman to be beaten tonight. >> i thought you were scottish, but it's like spitting image. never died. >> not yet. sounded like sean connery . yeah. connery. yeah. >> sound like the godfather. you come to me on the day of my daughter's wedding. fawlty towers now talk fawlty towers, radio boomers. >> yeah. are you looking at me, by the way, stephen, congratulations. your mob are finally in, i know. well, why aren't you looking more cheerful and enthusiastic? i thought you'd be doing cartwheels when you'd be doing cartwheels when you came in. >> well, no, no, at my age, dear boy, you haven't won an election for 19 years. until last i know, i know, and even up until, you know, 10:00 on the on the thursday night, i thought we're going to mess it up somehow, you know, because we can do it. we're good at that sort of thing.

malen scored twice in the final ten minutes of the game to secure the win, ronald koeman's side reachingemiral�*s double enough to see turkey through. but what about this late save from mert gunok, to deny austria a late equaliser. it's been compared to gordon banks' save that denied pele at the 1970 world cup, i'll leave that up to you to decide, but it brought turkish delight to the team and fans in the stadium. england enjoyed a day off on tuesday ahead of their quarterfinal against switzerland on saturday. preparation is continuing, good morning, sir! if they win that, they can dare to dream against a potential semifinal against netherlands and turkey. some players spent some time with their families. what of the opposition switzerland? the big news is one of their star players should be fit. former arsenal man granit xhaka is expected to be fit for the match. and they will fancy their chances after they beat the defending champions italy in the last 16. we played against germany, we were good, we played against italy, also a big team. and why not, we can beat england. in a good mood

intervened, the referee went over to have a look at the monitor, awarded the penalty to england, but ronald koemane not been given and it may have been a very different story for england. some of the other big decisions went their way as well. i guess it adds to this feeling perhaps that these little things are going england's way, along with big moments, turning points in matches, crucial goals, penalty shoot—out, every player playing their part at the moment and it sets things up quite spectacularly for the final on sunday. spectacularly for the final on sunda . ., .,, spectacularly for the final on sunda . ., ., , spectacularly for the final on sunda. ., ., , ., sunday. for even those of us not football experts, _ sunday. for even those of us not football experts, i— sunday. for even those of us not football experts, i find _ sunday. for even those of us not football experts, i find it - football experts, i find it fascinating listening to gareth southgate, his understanding of the psychology of how he is managing young players from very diverse backgrounds, earning huge amounts of money, unbel
