“Yes, it makes sense that Jacintha plays. She made an excellent impression at the World Cup, even though it was as the third goalkeeper,” said Jonker at the NOS about his choice for the goalkeeper. And about Dijsktra: “The choice for Caitlin was not difficult either. She showed herself for seven or eight weeks. Every time she had a good level in training. If a spot opens up, she is the one who deserves it now.
About the experience with the absence of Van Domselaar and Van der Gragt: “You don’t just get that back, but these girls show that they can handle this level in training. Now they have to show it tonight.”
Belgium forecast: “The last results were not good, their coach is gradually being questioned. He’s talking about taking up battle with us. They’re going to fire us up. We must be extremely alert. We already had to, but now even more so.”
