In het spoor van Oranje

The Dutch national team started the hunt for the European title on Monday. Training took place in a rainy Zeist and some received bad news.

Orange watcher Jeroen Stekelenburg and Chiel van Koldenhoven take you 'on the trail of Orange'. Behind the scenes during the European Championship adventure. The last internationals trickle in, after which the selection leaves for Portugal for a training camp in Lagos. We stay in the track of Orange and travel after the selection. In Lagos we watch the training and speak with Frank de Boer and Frenkie de Jong.

In episode three we are still in Portugal. The Netherlands is playing a practice match against Scotland, but there are still a few things to do before that. 5-3-2 or 4-3-3? Curl or Stekelenburg? We also meet YouTube king Soufiane Touzani.

In episode four we leave Portugal and we return to the Netherlands, where the goodbye match against Georgia is on the program on Sunday. Should Frank de Boer be concerned about Matthijs de Ligt's groin injury? And we meet loyal viewers of the vlog after the game.

The European Championship is about to start! Orange still has bad news to process, because Donny van de Beek drops out at the last minute. It is also not yet certain whether Matthijs de Ligt can already be used in the first game against Ukraine."

"The European Championship is now really starting for the Orange! The first group match against Ukraine is on the program. And pizzas in the parking lot, the plane for De Boer and we finally have images of commentator Jeroen Grueter on the scooter in Italy. Orange watcher Jeroen Stekelenburg and Chiel van Koldenhoven take you 'in the footsteps of Orange' behind the scenes during the European Championship adventure."

Orange plays its second group match at the European Championship. With a win over Austria, the Netherlands qualifies as group head for the eighth finals.\n\nOrange watcher Jeroen Stekelenburg and Chiel van Koldenhoven will take you 'in the footsteps of Orange'. Behind the scenes during the European Championship adventure.

National coach Frank de Boer exchanges two players for the last group match at the European Championship, where the Memphis-Malen duo find each other excellent. It makes for a dancing Mark Rutte and Orange fever.

This is it then, the last episode of 'In the track of Orange'. We fly after the Dutch national team to Budapest, where the Czech Republic awaits in the eighth finals. We almost got kicked out of our seats during filming, turned off the lights at the stadium around midnight and well, saw Orange lose… Thanks for watching!

Comeback! After a disappointing European Championship and the departure of Frank de Boer, it is now up to Louis van Gaal to guide the Orange to the World Cup in Qatar. Starting with the important away game against Norway.

With Louis van Gaal "the sun always shines" and the Orange win big against Montenegro, after which the national coach is loudly sung to.

New: the Memphis Meter! And as if Depay heard us, he immediately puts in 3 - his first hat-trick for the Dutch national team. Orange outclassed Turkey (6-1) and seizes the lead in the World Cup qualifying group. Louis van Gaal makes the selection and the country laugh again. Or is it all because of his wife, Truus...?

Er wordt getraind op Plan B(oem), maar het Nederlands elftal heeft het niet nodig, ondanks een matige wedstrijd in een waterkoud Letland. Oranje-watcher Jeroen Stekelenburg en Chiel van Koldenhoven nemen je mee 'in het spoor van Oranje'. Er is voor het eerst in lange tijd publiek bij de training, we klimmen in de lichtmast van het stadion in Riga en bijna wordt onze camera kapot geschoten. Oranje wint met 1-0, iets wat Louis van Gaal al had voorspeld...

"Memphis Depay, Memphis Depay!" Loudly the crowd favorite is sung by the fans. He is screwing up the Memphis Meter and is chasing the all-time top scorer of the Dutch national team. And what about that relaxing evening? And what about that relaxing evening? En wat dacht je van die ontspannende avond? And what about that night of relaxation? En hoe zit het met die nacht van ontspanning? And can the national coach also participate in that? Louis van Gaal explains it in a characteristic way... Orange watcher Jeroen Stekelenburg and Chiel van Koldenhoven take you 'on the trail of Orange'.

An extra Spoor van Oranje, because it is the Week of Truth for the Dutch national team. In the game with Montenegro (Saturday) and the exciting home game against Norway (Tuesday), the Orange has to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. National coach Louis van Gaal reveals that 2 players are eligible to play right winger. And we speak to 2 internationals who are also neighbors in Spain.

The Week of Truth starts badly for the Dutch national team. We travel after the team to Montenegro, answer the questions about the form and unravel the line-up. The technical staff sees in advance how Norway plays a draw. The World Cup ticket is up for grabs, but the evening ends in deception for the Orange.
