What the coaches say
Frank de Boer, Netherlands coach: "The past two days we have been tested twice, so we have all had enough sticks in our noses. We would like to get to the final tournament, but to do that we will have to win tomorrow. In Bosnia it was 0-0, but we had at least five good chances in the second half. We should definitely have won."
Dušan Bajević, Bosnia and Herzegovina coach: "It will be different [to the previous meeting in Zenica], It will be a harder game, but I believe we can play well and hope for a good result. No one can predict the outcome, but we must play responsibly and well. It will not be easy for [the Netherlands] either. They have fast players and they hold the ball. That doesn’t mean they are better than us and will win."
