The Netherlands may have won 3-0 against Gibraltar, but especially the weak performance of the Netherlands caused the necessary commotion. And Noa Lang was an often mentioned name.
The Netherlands lost its first match under Ronald Koeman with a heavy 4-0 score against France. On Monday, the Netherlands won 3-0 against dwarf state Gibraltar, but there was still a lot of criticism.
There was a lot of criticism, especially on the game of Orange. In particular, the lack of creativity was lacking according to many. Noa Lang, the best at Club Brugge for several weeks, was not called up by national coach Koeman.
Cody Gakpo had to drop out of the selection for the Orange, but Lang was not called up. Many fans of the Netherlands are therefore questioning the absence of Noa Lang in the selection.
Noa long should have been behind the striker for years with frenk and georgino

Noa Lang is a better left winger than Xavi Simons. No hate towards Simons at all. But Lang should have just been selected. Strange choice from Koeman

Why wouldn’t Koeman call up players like Noa Lang and Danjuma to break down these low blocks? It seems so obvious.
