Wednesday 8pm: Netherlands v England
Euro 2024 semi-final match, Dortmund
TV: ITV1 and RTE 2
It’s crunch time for Harry Kane and England on Wednesday night as they do battle with the Dutch in Dortmund. Kane smashed in 44 goals in his debut Bayern Munich season but his Euro 2024 campaign has yielded just two so far.
Rumours of a mix up at St. George’s Park, and Barry Kane swapping passports with his namesake for the trip to Germany have been refuted by Gareth Southgate, as Harry searches for redemption.
It’s not been all bad for Kane at the tournament, he nodded home the last 16 extra time winner against Slovakia, and his starting spot is unquestioned.
However, he faces a familiar foe in this clash as Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk aims to lead Ronald Koeman’s Orange Army to the final.
Kane’s decision to swap Spurs for Munich has kept the pair apart, but he has six goals in 12 direct matches against van Dijk for club and country, and their head-to-head will be crucial.
Virgil van Dijk to commit 2+ fouls
Van Dijk has started all five of the Netherlands games at Euro 2024 and completed 90 minutes in each clash. However, despite his importance to the Dutch, he has found himself constantly on the wrong side of the referee.
Ahead of the semi finals, he leads the Euro 2024 foul charts, with 12 committed. Four of his five games have featured over one foul committed by the Reds centre back and he was cautioned in the quarter final win over Turkey.
Virgil van Dijk to have 1+ or shots
The Netherlands scored their two goals from crosses into the box against Turkey and van Dijk will be wheeled forward for corners and free kicks in crossing.
He has managed a shot in four of his five Euro 2024 games, with the Turkey win the only exception, and he will be a threat in the box for the Dutch.
Harry Kane to commit 2+ fouls
Kane’s frustration in front of goal has led to him giving away silly fouls at Euro 2024, and he has committed at least one, in four of his five games at the tournament.
He was guilty of two fouls in the quarter final win over Switzerland, and if he is struggling to fire against van Dijk, he could start hacking players down.
Harry Kane to have 2+ shots on target
Kane’s search for goals has meant the England captain taking more pot shots on goal, He registered one shot on target in his first four games, and as the pressure ramps up, he should go one step further in this game.
