Vital Heynen, the head coach of Germany, always speaks bluntly. This time he replied to the accusations made by Dutch colleague, Gido Vermeulen.

“It was not my tactical decision to lose from The Netherlands in order to play against Bulgaria at the quarterfinals, because it is too far. Even if we had won against The Netherlands, we would still need to win today. Yesterday we just played with a different team. Winning by 3-2 or losing by 2-3 – there is no influence. If we lose by 0-3 to the Czech Republic, we are out. We lost two games, it is time to win one,” Heynen explained why he made so many changes during the Pool A game versus Dutch team and left subs on the court for so long.

Recall, the coach of The Netherlands stated that Germany lost to them on purpose.
