How can the dutch advance in euro 2017
The Netherlands have a perfect record after their three group matches at Euro But how good are the Oranje? Good enough to win it all?
The knockouts will be revealing. And every group match was played at home in Amsterdam. A convincing victory at the Puskas Arena in Budapest against a Czech Republic team that played England close loss and tied Croatia could win over a few more of those skeptics who still aren't sure whether the Netherlands men's team is back after failing to qualify for Euro and the FIFA World Cup.
Meanwhile, the Czechs are playing with house money after getting out of the group. Their formula has involved a compact, organized tactical structure that allows their star forward to make the match-deciding plays.
Both teams are operating in Group C. Netherlands has clinched its Euro group stage with two wins. In contrast, North Macedonia has been mathematically eliminated from advancing and aims to avoid a winless appearance in the tournament. The latest North Macedonia vs. Netherlands odds from William Hill Sportsbook list Netherlands as the 1.

Fara Williams unwisely headed a ball back towards goal, and it bounced inside the area and into space.
Both Chamberlain and Van de Donk raced towards the loose ball, but Chamberlain was a split-second too late as Van de Donk chipped the ball over her sliding body and into a wide-open net. The Lionesses had their fair share of attempts on goal in the second half as well, combining in both halves to outshoot the Orange with 10 shots on goal. However, Van Veenendaal had a stellar second half, making a number of impressive saves to earn her another clean sheet.
To add insult to injury so to speak, one Lioness did find her way onto the scoresheet, but not the way anyone would have wanted. Martens played a lofted pass to Liverpool winger Shanice van de Sanden, who crossed for Miedema to finish with ease. The new Arsenal striker could have had a second 10 minutes later but fired just wide of the far post.
The hosts advance to the last four, where they could face England in a repeat of the semi-final, which England won in extra-time.
