It doesn’t. I think we’re discussing something closer to fitness levels.

80 degrees F is not hot. Professional athletes should not be struggling at that temperature.

Im no expert - but not sure the fitter you are means you get less de-hydrated?

Kalvin Phillips was MotM for me today-although I don't know how he managed to escape a booking! And I think Todd should go for that hairstyle next season.

He's been treated pretty badly considering the season he had. Went as second choice then last minute gets demoted behind Stekelenberg. Ajax bias!

Thought it was now referred to as Star Of The Match now, or at least it is by UEFA.

Dutch coach has stated that both Stekelenberg and Krul would get game time throughout the tournament so no surprise tonight

Would be weird from De Boer to be purposefully rotating goalkeepers during a tournament. How can they build momentum / confidence / form?

You would expect Holland to win their group, which could put them up against Scotland in the Round of 16.

I can't see a 3rd choice GK getting a game.

I think he definitely expected to be No.1 after Cillessen was ruled out. He didn't come in as the 3rd keeper

Ok if he's 2nd choice then he might get a game against Macedonia. Assuming of course they win tonight then beat Austria.

What is a professional performance?

Is it having an imbalanced team, an out of form left sided forward, two shots on target at home against an aging team who we managed to share possession with?

...and yet picked up 3 points.

I think that's the professional part.

I prefer to think it was just that Croatia were dire.
