The Netherlands national football team is the national association football team of the Netherlands and is controlled by the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB), the governing body for football in the Netherlands. Netherlands play home matches at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam, De Kuip in Rotterdam, and Philips Stadion in Eindhoven. The current team manager is Ronald Koeman.
It won Euro '88 and reached two consecutive World Cup finals in 1974 and 1978, but lost both finals to their respective host nations, West Germany and Argentina. At the peak of its success in the 1970s, the team was famous for its mastery of Total Football and was nicknamed Clockwork Oranje for its precision passing. In many countries and even the Netherlands itself, the team is colloquially referred to as Holland.
