It's the joy (and sorrow) of sports. That's why we don't run a computer simulation and award medals based on that.

Funnily enough the Dutch women also defeated the winner of the first OQT (Azerbeidzjan) in the group fase, only, like in this tournament, to go down to a massive defeat against the runner up.

The Dutch team is also the reigning European Champion, so not completely meritless.

 

Up to Debrecen now, for the Last Chance saloon

Really? Don't remember that title at all. But the Dutch team has a problem. They need to win against Hungary, Italy and Israel in group D at the OKT3, otherwise B1 (Canada for sure) waits in the quarterfinal.
