The reactions
Frank de Boer
, coach of the Dutch national team, said at the end: "I am very pleased. I heard that Daley Blind said it was a business victory, I do not want to call it that. We played a good game. Against Ukraine we allowed too many situations, and today there is improvement in the field. "Apply pressure, but in a 0: 2 situation you prefer to play smart and move a ball. I have a good team, but we can further improve ball possession. We must not reach a peak too soon."
Regarding the last game against Northern Macedonia, de Boer said: "We will have to think about resting the players, after securing first place at home. Some need it and others may actually benefit from the pace. We will have to test the intensity. Obviously the quarterfinals in Bucharest are our most important game. "" Right now. "
Denzel Dompris
Re-elected man of the match: "It's starting to look like a childhood dream come true, but the most important thing is the three points. We started the Euros well and now we have to stay focused. My goal? Danielle Mullen did the job, I just had to keep going. "From the previous game, we were sharper and kept a clean sheet. I am convinced we can go far."
Austria captain
David Alaba
said at the end: "I am proud of our team, we have shown a lot of effort. We did not play as we know in the last third of the game. I take responsibility for the penalty. It is very disappointing and painful for me to fail."
Austria coach
Franco Fuda
: "We lost too many balls too easily in the first half. We invited the Netherlands to attack us too many times. We got as far as their pitch, but the last delivery was not accurate. We did not create enough situations. Even when we got opportunities we were not focused. We were not determined enough. Our performance was not good enough. "
