The Netherlands finished off the worst showing by any World Cup host nation by beating Qatar 2-0 on Tuesday.
Frenkie de Jong of Netherlands celebrates after scoring his team's second goal with teammates during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Group A match between Netherlands and Qatar at Al Bayt Stadium on Nov. 29, 2022 in Al Khor, Qatar. The Netherlands still has a long way to go to match the "total football" teams of the 1970s, or even the more offensive "Oranje" squads that reached the World Cup final in 2010 and finished third in 2014.
"We're very critical of ourselves and we need to improve," Klaassen added. "But we have progressed and we're going to move on." Qatar, which was making its tournament debut, won the 2019 Asian Cup. But the team's Spanish coach, Felix Sanchez, said that the Asian Cup can't be compared to the World Cup.
The Netherlands, which failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, finished with seven points at the top of the group. Senegal, which beat Ecuador 2-1 in the other group game, advanced in second place with six points. Ecuador was eliminated with four points and Qatar ended up with zero. In the 26th minute, Gakpo took control outside the area, dribbled forward and unleashed a powerful side-footed shot between two defenders that entered inside the right post.
De Jong's goal came when he sprinted forward uncontested to knock in a rebound from close range following a shot from Memphis Depay.
