Holland show the way forward 02:26am on 14 Jun 2008 The events in the group of death are close to unbelievable, in particular with regard to the matches of the Dutch team. Holland made it through the qualification for Euro 2008 with considerable difficulty. Van Basten continued to experiment upto a point where few were left who understood where he was going. The Dutch press was expressing harsh criticism and the public barely had a clue about Van Basten's selection procedures and tactics.

But this tournament shows his vision, persistence and guts are being rewarded abundantly. Even if the team does not succeed in conquering the cup, Van Basten has proved that he is as great a coach as he was a player. Guys like him at times brighten up our tiny, worthless and miserable lives.
