The soccer teams of the Netherlands and Ecuador drew 1:1 in the second round of the group stage World Cup in Qatar.

Apart from the excellent game of the Ecuadorians, the match will also be remembered for the extremely bad game of the Netherlands in the attack, which resulted in only two shots on the goal of the South American national team.

The fact that the Netherlands became the European team with the fewest shots on the opponent's goal speaks for the weakness of the "Tulips". WC since 1966.

Let's recall, the Dutch first scored a goal at the very start of the match, but it soon went downhill for Louis van Gaal's men.

Ecuador took matters into their own hands and quickly asserted the initiative which could eventually be crowned with a complete reversal.
