The Dutch hold the
record for playing
the most World Cup
finals without ever
winning the final.
They finished second
in the 1974, 1978
and 2010 World Cups,
losing to West
Germany, Argentina
and Spain
respectively. They
won the UEFA
European
Championship in
1988. At the peak of
their success in the
1970s, the team was
famous for its
mastery of Total
Football.
The 2014 Dutch World
cup squad will
include some of the
best players in the
world and the
Neherlands most
surely be looked at
as one of the
favourites this
summer.
