Oranje unbeaten to football World CupThursday 10 September 2009 The Dutch national football team qualified for the 2010 Fifa World Cup in South Africa with a 1-0 away win against Scotland on Wednesday evening. Oranje ended the qualifying groups round with a maximum 24 points from eight games. Dutch captain Giovanni van Bronckhorst told the Fifa website ending Scotland's dreams of reaching South Africa left him with a bitter-sweet feeling. 'Of course I feel sorry for Scotland,' the Feyenoord defender said. 'If there was any country who I wanted to be involved in the World Cup it was Scotland.'

The relationship between Poland and Beenhakker cooled when the Dutchman agreed to help out his old club Feyenoord as a technical advisor earlier this year. © DutchNews.nl

We would like to thank all of our Dutch friends for really wishing Scotland to join Holland in the World Cup.
I think you gave us every chance last nigh but it was not to be, we just did not have a goal scorer on the night.
GOOD LUCK TO HOLLAND IN SOUTH AFRICA, and HOPE YOU WIN IT !
