Heitinga and Holland on the brink

, 14 June, 15comments  |  Jump to most recent
John Heitinga is in danger of making an unexpectedly early return from Euro2012 after the Netherlands lost their second Group B game, going down 2-1 to Germany who are firmly in the driving seat in the "Group of Death".

Uncharacteristically porous at the back, the Dutch were behind 2-0 by half time to two excellent Mario Gomez strikes.

Robin van Persie pulled one back in the second half but Holland couldn't find an equaliser as Germany shut up shop and the Oranjie will need to beat Portugal convincingly and hope that the Germans beat Denmark to have any hope of progressing to the next phase.
