The second group of the Dutch Professional League is just around the corner. The next part of a busy international summer begins in London on Friday. The Dutch men and women will play twice in the English capital. All matches can be watched live on Ziggo Sport.
Jeroen Delme's men will play in a double clash against Spain on Friday (4:10pm) and Monday (6:40pm). Both matches can be watched on Ziggo Sport's main channel. The first meeting can also be followed on the Voetbal channel, and the second on the Ziggo Racing channel.
The Netherlands have a good record against the world's No. 7 seed. The last seven confrontations resulted in six victories. The last time the Dutch national team lost to Spain was in 2019. At that time, the Netherlands suffered a serious defeat (4-3) during the European Championship semi-finals in Antwerp. This happened under the leadership of Max Caldas, who – here we have the bridge to the present – is currently the national coach of Spain.

The Netherlands national team scores big goals against the United States
The Orange Women will play against the United States on Saturday and Tuesday. The Americans were on the rise in the middle of the last decade – for example, they finished fourth in the 2014 World Cup – but then fell back considerably. Team USA did not qualify for the 2022 World Championships nor the last Olympics. The fact that America, ranked 15th in the world, is not one of the major countries, is also clear from recent meetings with the Dutch national team. The Netherlands has scored no less than 29 goals in the last four matches against this opponent.
On Saturday you can go to Ziggo Docu from 1.30pm to see Oranjevrouwen. Three days later, you have to tune into the main sports channel (and Ziggo Select) to watch the Netherlands match. Then there will be a turn in London at 3.40pm.
