"Of course, you prefer to take players who are fully fit, but that's okay. We want to wait and be patient for some players even if they cannot play in those first matches," he told a press conference. The 37-year-old Vertonghen, Belgium’s Euro Cup 2024 most-capped international with 154 appearances, is struggling to shake off a groin injury.
"He will be there normally. This also applies to Youri Tielemans and Arthur Theate. The latter's position is very sensitive. We don't have many choices at left back. "It will only change if it turns out that they will only be available when, say, the final of the Euro 2024 Championship comes around. That's too long to wait. "However, I am confident that the injured boys are on track for the Euros.
Belgium vs Romania: Radu Dragusin Prepares for Crucial Role in Euro Cup Germany
Some of them have taken not one but two steps forward in their rehabilitation," he said. None of the injured players will feature in this week’s warm-up friendlies against Montenegro and Luxembourg. Romania centre-back Radu Dragusin found chances limited at Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the 2023-24 season.
But is crucial to his country's cause at UEFA Euro 2024 where his aerial ability, physicality and hard graft make him a standout player. The 22-year-old moved to North London from Italian side Genoa in January but was kept on the sidelines by the form of another new arrival for the season, Mickey van de Ven, something Romania coach Edward Iordanescu admitted was a concern.
It will mean limited game-time going into the finals, but Dragusin, who cites Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk as a role model, started every Euro Cup Germany qualifier as Romania went through the campaign unbeaten in their 10 games. He will be among their most important players in their first game in Germany against Ukraine in Munich on June 17, taking the right centre-back role in what is likely to be a back four.

Psaroudakis: Family and Football – The Psaroudakis Success StoryPsaroudakis
Psaroudakis, a name that resonates with football fans around the globe, is a testament to the powerful synergy between familial support and individual passion. Born on March 10, 1992, in the historic city of Heraklion, Crete, Psaroudakis’ journey to international football stardom is a compelling narrative of dedication, perseverance, and unwavering family support. His story not only highlights his athletic prowess but also underscores the crucial role his family played in shaping his career and character.
Psaroudakis’ early life in Heraklion was deeply influenced by a supportive and nurturing family environment. His father, a former semi-professional footballer, recognized Psaroudakis’ potential from an early age. Acting as his first coach, his father’s guidance was instrumental in igniting Psaroudakis’ passion for football. This paternal influence instilled in him a strong work ethic and fundamental skills that would become the foundation of his future success. His mother, a dedicated homemaker, provided a stable and nurturing environment, ensuring that Psaroudakis could pursue his dreams without any hindrances.
From a young age, Psaroudakis showed an innate talent for football. Growing up in Heraklion, he spent countless hours playing football in local parks and streets with friends and family. His natural ability was evident even in these informal settings, and his enthusiasm for the game was infectious. By the age of five, Psaroudakis had joined a local youth football club, where his skills began to flourish. His father’s role as his first coach during these formative years was crucial, as he emphasized not only technical skills but also the importance of discipline and teamwork.
The transition from playing in local parks to joining a structured football environment marked a significant step in Psaroudakis’ journey. At the age of ten, he joined the youth academy of OFI Crete, one of Greece’s most esteemed football clubs. This move marked the beginning of a more rigorous and professional approach to his training. The academy environment was demanding, focusing on honing technical abilities and instilling values of sportsmanship and dedication. Psaroudakis’ dedication to his craft was evident as he quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a standout player in the youth teams.
The support of Psaroudakis’ family was unwavering during this critical period. His father continued to be a source of guidance and mentorship, while his mother ensured that he had everything he needed to succeed. Their collective efforts created a balanced environment where Psaroudakis could focus entirely on his development as a footballer. This familial support was not just about providing the basics; it was about creating an environment where Psaroudakis felt encouraged and motivated to pursue his dreams relentlessly.
As Psaroudakis transitioned from the youth academy to professional football, the challenges became more significant.

However, in 2023, they played one another twice, with France endearing both matches 4-0 and 2-1 individually. Against Poland and Austria, the Netherlands also have a stout record, winning just under half the matches. They faced Austria at Euro 2020, engaging 2-0, and they haven't lost to Poland since 1979.
The lettering is on the wall for Holland to qualify for the knockouts, but nothing is failsafe. The Netherlands kickstart their Euros campaign against Poland on Sunday, June 16th. In Hamburg, they will have to go up against one of the best strikers in the world, Robert Lewandowski.

Five days later, they travel south to face France in Leipzig, a side led by Kylian Mbappe - one of the finest players in the world currently and one of the most impressive players in his nation's history. To conclude, they face Austria in Berlin, knowing it could be the end of the road if they don't perform.
Ronald Koeman is widely considered one of the more successful Dutch managers in Premier League history, considering the nation has a reputation for struggling to replicate their talents in England. The former Everton manager went against that script and shone — and now he is back managing his nation.

Netherlands vs Austria: Ronald Koeman's Tactical Approach For UEFA Euro 2024
As well as being the highest-scoring defender in history, Koeman is a man with immense tactical knowledge. He returned to manage Holland at the start of 2023 after it was announced Louis van Gaal would retire. His life back in the dugout with the team wasn't easy, as he lost his first match 4-0 to France after going 3-0 down within 21 minutes.
However, he eventually helped them qualify for Euro Cup Germany. The 61-year-old likes to organize his team with a defensive mindset. Some might call it pragmatic as he defends with minimal space between the lines, but that's often needed for international football.

11. • X, nicknamed Golden left foot, is a Brazilian footballer
who won the 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico with
Brazil. X is considered one of the best passers in World
Cup history. Although he didn't play well in 1966, he
was the mastermind behind the whole Brazilian
national team in the 1970 tournament. He is regarded
as the best passer and midfielder in that Cup and the
best player in the final match against Italy.
X had his name unfortunately associated with the
infamous X’s law. He starred in a cigarette advertising
campaign in the '70s which had a tagline: “I like to take
advantage of everything.” and became a codeword for
the traditional Brazilian disregard for Laws & Rules.
13. • ___________, is a 1981 film about Allied prisoners of war who are
interned in a German prison camp during World War II. Association
football plays an integral part of the film. The Allied prisoners of war
coached and represented by Englishman John Colby, who was a
professional footballer for West Ham United before the war, agree to play
an exhibition match against a German team, only to find themselves
involved in a German propaganda stunt. In the end, the POWs can leave
the German camp only to play the match; they are to be imprisoned again
following the match. Despite the match officials being heavily biased
towards the Germans, and the German team causing several deliberate
injuries to the Allied players, a draw is achieved after great performances
from Luis Fernandez (portrayed by Pele), Carlos Rey (portrayed by Osvaldo
Ardiles) and Arthur Hayes (portrayed by John Wark). American POW
Robert Hatch plays goalkeeper, and makes excellent saves including one
last save from a penalty kick as time expires to deny the Germans the win,
drawing the game 4–4.
15. • X is a style of play in association football, characterised by short
passing and movement, working the ball through various channels,
and maintaining possession. The style is primarily associated with
La Liga club FC Barcelona and the Spanish national team under
managers Luis Aragones and Vicente del Bosque.
Spanish broadcaster Andres Montes is generally credited with
coining and popularizing the phrase X during his television
commentary for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, although the term was
already in colloquial use in Spanish football and may originate with
Javier Clemente. The phrase's origin may be derived from a juggling
toy named X in Spanish (clackers in English). Some describe X as "a
significant upgrade" of Total Football because it relies on ball
movement rather than players switching position.
X?
17. • X is regarded as one of the most successful managers ever, winning
both league and domestic cup titles in the Netherlands, Belgium,
Germany and Austria as well as winning the European Cup twice,
the first in 1970 and the second in 1983, and a runners-up medal at
the 1978 FIFA World Cup. He is the first of three managers to have
won the European Cup with 2 different clubs.
He made his debut for Austria in September 1947 against Hungary
and was a participant at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, where
he helped them reach 3rd place, and also at the 1958 World Cup.
At the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina, X was coach of the Dutch
national team and reached the final against the Argentine national
team. Always a man of few words, X's pre-match pep talk is said to
have consisted of just one sentence: "Gentlemen, two points.“
After his death in 1992, the Praterstadion in Vienna, was renamed X
Stadion.
19. • ___________ is a name attributed by British journalists to
the second metatarsal.
X, while playing against Deportivo La Coruna in a UEFA
Champions League quarter-final game in 2002, was subject
to a tackle from Argentina's Aldo Duscher. This tackle broke
the second metatarsal in his left foot and seriously
threatened his national team's chances in the 2002 World
Cup. X was the media darling at the time, and the bone
(and the tackle) received a wave of publicity. Subsequently,
the name “___________" was born.
Since then, other notable football players including, Daniel
Agger, Gary Neville, Danny Murphy, Michael Owen, Gael
Clichy, Ashley Cole, Ledley King and Lionel Messi have
suffered fractures to the same bone.
21. • _____________ was founded on October 30, 1998 in the city of Rosario
but it wasn't until 2001 that they had their first gathering. They now
reportedly count over 100,000 members from more than 60 countries
around the world.
It could be seen as a type of syncretism. It's clear that the passion
between the different members is what glues them together. As Alejandro
Verón, one of the founders tells us "I have a rational religion and that’s the
Roman Catholic church, and I have a religion passed on my heart, passion,
and that’s X."
Supporters of the X Church, supposedly from all parts of the world, count
the years since X's birth in 1960. It is popular among the followers of this
religion, and also among other football fans, to use the neo-
Tetragrammaton "D10S" as one of the names of X. D10S is a portmanteau
word which fuses X's shirt number and Dios, the Spanish word for God.
According to the church of X, it is the year 49 AB.
23. • The Superga air disaster took place on Wednesday, 4 May 1949,
when a plane carrying almost the entire X football squad, crashed
into the hill of Superga near Turin killing all 31 aboard including 18
players, club officials, journalists accompanying the team, and the
plane's crew. The team was returning from a farewell match for Xico
Ferreira against Benfica in Lisbon.
At the time of the crash, X was leading Serie A with four games left
to play in the season. The club carried on by fielding its youth team
(Primavera) and in a sign of respect their opponents in each of
these matches also fielded their youth sides. Primavera won each of
the matches and the scudetto. The disaster seriously weakened the
country's national side which had included up to 10 players from X.
X?
25. • A common riddle asked in the UK is : “What is
always taken to the FA Cup Final, but never
used?”
a) What is the answer to this riddle?
b) Why is it wrong?
26. • a) The “losers’ ribbon”, because the winners’
ribbon is tied around the Cup.
b)Its wrong, because, during the match both
the ribbons are tied around the cup and after
the match is over the losers’ ribbon is
removed.
27. • X was famous for his large moustache, thunderous long-range free
kicks, excellent long passes, quick thinking and distinct way of
controlling the ball. He also invented a football move called the
________, famously copied by Maradona, Ronaldinho, Zlatan
Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo in recent years.
X started as a futsal player at Clube Atletico Barcelona. After that,
he tried his luck with Barcelona's biggest rival in futsal, Corinthians,
where he moved on to professional football and quickly became a
favourite of the fans -- and was therefore nicknamed King of the
Park.
X is sometimes credited with scoring the fastest goal in football
history when he supposedly scored a goal direct from the kick-off
after noticing the opposition goalkeeper on his knees finishing off
pre-match prayers.
29. • The cup shown below is well-known by a
common name, but its officially named after

Barcelona, the La Masia. From 1997 he played for the
Barcelona reserve side, which then competed in the third
tier in the Spanish football pyramid. In 2000, aged 18 he
was called up for the Barcelona first-team. ‘A’ made his La
Liga debut in the 2000-01 season. He signed for Villarreal in
2004. ‘A’ is known for his exuberant, jester-like character off
the pitch, often entertaining his teammates with jokes and
songs, and famously acting as a crowd-pleasing master of
ceremonies at his national team’s official victory
celebrations following their triumphs.
‘A’? +20/-10
33. • 2. B began his management career with a spell as player-assistant
manager of North American Soccer League side Seattle Sounders
from 1976 to 1979. X then had a spell assisting his former West
Ham team-mate Bobby Moore at Oxford City. In June 1990, whilst
watching the World Cup in Italy, B was involved in a car crash with
Bournemouth's managing director Brian Tiler, who died along with
four other people. Though B made a full recovery (apart from being
permanently without a sense of smell), he eventually quit
Bournemouth. B has gone on to manage West Ham United,
Portsmouth and SunderIand among other English clubs.In
September 2006, B was shown on camera by BBC Panorama taking
part in what appeared to be an interest in approaching a player

34. • 3. In 1996, C signed with Italian giants Internazionale .C turned
many heads when signing with English club Bolton Wanderers in
2002, but added a lot of class to the team during his two seasons
there, resulting in the creation of an international "dream-team"
alongside the tricky Nigerian Jay-Jay Okocha and former Real
Madrid midfielder Iván Campo. He then transferred to Blackburn
Rovers for the 2004-05 season, but left the club after playing in only
three games. C then signed with the MetroStars of Major League
Soccer in February 2005 for $180,000 plus incentives, turning down
higher paid offers from other countries. He became the first French
player to play in MLS and ended the season as the team's MVP with
ten goals and seven assists in league play.
On 1 July 2006, he was spotted in the crowd with French fans at the
FIFA World Cup quarter-final match between France and Brazil after
telling New York Red Bulls officials he left the club to attend to "an
unexpected, serious family matter in France.“ C? +10/-5
35. • 4. In 2005–06, he joined local Barcelona's youth
ranks, scoring seven goals in 26 matches for the
Juvenil A team in the following season. Two years
later, he was promoted to the B team under
Josep Guardiola, and helped it achieve promotion

the Argentine national team. He was a member of both rival clubs
River Plate and Boca Juniors.X has become a club legend and cult-
hero at many of the clubs he has played at. He got a 13-month ban
for taking cocaine in 1993 and has a history of enjoying the high life.

X is great friends with Argentine legend Diego Maradona, the duo

despite the rules of national coach Daniel Passarella, he was frozen
out of the national team for a number of years.
46. • X was one of the first football managers in the modern sense of the
word, taking full charge of the team, rather than letting board
members pick the side. As well as his tactical innovations, he was
also a strong believer in physical fitness in football – he instituted a
strict training regime and the use of physiotherapists and masseurs.
After attending a night-time match in Belgium in 1930, X became
an early advocate of floodlights. He had lights installed in
Highbury's new West Stand when it was constructed in 1932.
However they were only used for training and Arsenal would have
to wait until the 1950s for their officially-sanctioned use in matches.
