The Netherlands does not have many players who shine like squads from other countries, only a few players who have top names. however, that does not mean their performance will be very doubtful in this world cup stage. after all they have statistics that are quite impressive, in 15 matches, they played quite well and smoothly without defeat.

meaning, their probability of qualifying in the next group stage is wide open compared to other contestants who are members of group A. and, maybe in the Qatar world cup later, they could give us a surprise.
as for the other three contestants, such as Senegal, Ecuador, Qatar, they must at least try to beat the Netherlands if they want to qualify for the next phase.

The team nicknamed the Oranje in the previous tournament had to be absent because they failed to pass the 2018 world cup qualifying phase, but this year the Netherlands managed to win a direct ticket to the Qatar world cup finals after beating Norway 2-0, indeed on paper the Netherlands has a tradition better when compared to the other three teams, if they are in the best condition the Netherlands can reach the final, because the Dutch national team has reached the world cup final three times, the last time they almost won the 2010 world cup trophy, before finally being defeated by Spain in the final. .

After missing last world cup now Netherlands back into business with they are surely one of the best team in Europe and have quality players those are capable of having good results against top teams, and they are one of the unluckiest team in world cup history only team who lost three finals and never won any title in this event.

Here few are feeling they could be in last four which is possible but for this they have to done good job first in group stage where they are going to face African Champions Senegal then host country Qatar and last one Ecuador which is also difficult team to play on papers things are looking easy, but things could be clear as they will be in ground for their matches.
