EURO 2008 INFO

"Black Night" and "collective pride in the game Holland", were two sides of the night that punished too much to the world champion.

Marco Van Basten (Holland):

"I'm very proud for having won the world champion, playing as we have done and marking three goals. It was historic, because I think we had never won by 3-0 to Italy. In addition, we achieved without major players like Robben or Babel. We work as a whole and the Netherlands has shown its collective quality. We are not before the birth of a new Netherlands, has tried only one game, a game important, but only a game. "

Roberto Donadoni (Italy):

"The 1-0 has greatly complicated their lives. In the 2-0 we were a bit naive, because they do not recover well the position and we move marked a collective game. Italy should learn from these kinds of matches and now we must dump all energies in the match against Romania which will be crucial. It was a dark night, but we have to lift the morale because if not instead go to Zurich to play the next game, we would have to go on vacation. "
