The Netherlands U19 are impressive at this year's European Championship. Surprisingly, despite their strong football tradition, they have never won the title at this level. In the group phase, Netherlands U19 cruised to the top spot with all three wins and a 9:2 goal difference. In the previous match, Peter van der Veen's team won 4-2 at home against England U19. The Netherlands U19 ended the game with an xG of 0.80, while their opponents had 1.80. However, van der Veen's team demonstrated superb efficiency, resulting in another victory.
Romania is the host for this year's tournament, so the expectations were always high for Marin Ion's team. While they weren't as dominant as the Netherlands, Marin Ion's team won two of their three group-stage matches to reach the semifinals of the U19 EURO for the first time in their history. Before the third decisive round, Romania U19 and Denmark were equal with three points, but Ion's team won 3-0 and earned a spot in the knockout phase. Romania U19 ended the game with an xG of only 0.42, making their comfortable win all the more unexpected.
Netherlands U19 vs Romania U19 pick: Under 3.5 goals
Netherlands U19 allowed only two goals in three matches at the tournament, while Romania U19 conceded two goals more. Both teams have solid defenses, so we shouldn't see more than three goals on Monday night in Bucharest.
Netherlands U19 team news
Netherlands U19's head coach, Peter van der Veen, is optimistic about his team's chances in the semifinal. He said, "A difficult team. And they have the support of the home crowd. That always gives you wings. Seven thousand tickets have already been sold. But we are mainly looking at ourselves. If we reach our level, we have a very good team, and we can beat anyone."
