Go Ahead Eagles starts training on June 21. The club will play friendly matches against TOP Oss, Almere City, Lommel SK and Luton Town. The training sessions will take place in Terwolde. The KNVB has promoted two referees from Overijssel to the professional football: Stan Smit and Jorg Ordelmans. They have completed the Talenten Traject Betaald Voetbal. The Dutch national team will play two friendly matches before the World Cup. Tomorrow is the first of those two in Rotterdam against Algeria. Coach Ronald Koeman announced on the press conference that Mats Wieffer will start in the base. He benefits from the suspension of right-back Denzel Dumfries due to his red card against Ecuador in March. Wieffer is actually a midfielder, but played for his club Brighton in the last months also as a right-back. The Bornese footballer was not in the selection for a year, but will go to the World Cup. Additionally, Koeman announced that Bart Verbruggen will be the goalkeeper against Algeria. He is also the first goalkeeper at the World Cup. Monday is the other friendly match. Then Oranje will play in New York against Uzbekistan. Thursday Oranje will travel to America. The FIFA has announced the numbers of the Dutch national team for the World Cup. Wout Weghorst from Borne will play with his familiar number 9, Zwollenaar Tijjani Reijnders will play with number 14 and so also now. Mats Wieffer, also from Borne, has been assigned number 12. Notably, Marten de Roon, the midfielder who was not in Oranje for two years, will play with number 3. Also Justin Kluivert has been assigned a base number: 7. In the past, the expected base number was often 1 to 11, but in recent years more and more players have played with fixed numbers. The Netherlands will play the three group matches in the Orange jersey. PEC Zwolle has sold all season tickets for the fourth year in a row. As a result, all 9200 available seats will be occupied next season. After the extension period, a small part became available, which was quickly sold out. In total, 14,000 supporters can be accommodated in the stadium. Therefore, other fans can also buy loose tickets.
