Netherlands striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has already put the disappointment of Euro 2012 behind him.
The Dutch crashed out at the first hurdle after losing all three of their Group B games in Poland and Ukraine, after the side had been touted as a potential winner.
Bert van Marwijk has since been replaced by Louis van Gaal as the national team coach, and the Schalke forward has urged his side to look forward and not back.
We did not play well together and were already eliminated after the group stages, Huntelaar told Voetbal International.
That was a big disappointment, especially since everyone was expecting so much from us; I was too. During my holiday I quickly closed the book on the European Championship. To me, it is now behind us.

Market: West Ham win
Odds: 10/11 @
Looking to extend on what has been a stunning run of form, West Ham will make the trip to the Luminus Arena when they face off against Genk on Thursday evening.
Starting with the hosts, last seen over the weekend picking up what was a remarkable 6-2 win away at Waregem on domestic duties, Genk has suddenly found themselves enjoying a much-welcomed boost over the past week. However, while the Belgium outfit might have recorded a staggering 12 goals in their back-to-back victories across all formats, that doesn t cover what has been an inconsistent run of form since opening October. Suffering five straight defeats last month and watching Head Coach John van den Brom come under real scrutiny, Genk have also managed to land just a …
Raheem Sterling became the most expensive English footballer on this day in 2015 after completing his £49million move from Liverpool to Manchester City.
The 20-year-old England forward, who was assigned the number seven shirt, was also City’s record signing.
City’s interest in Sterling had been an open secret for some time, but Liverpool were desperate to retain his services.
However, they were fighting a losing battle from the moment Sterling told manager Brendan Rodgers he wanted to leave following his return for pre-season training and requested not to be included in the party for the club’s pre-season trip to Australia and the far east.
Liverpool rejected a series of offers from City as they held out for their £50m valuation of their prize ass…
The touchdown market has become one of the most popular and potentially profitable props in the NFL betting world. Each week, we’re going to throw down four to five units as we try to uncover some of the best weekly NFL TD props and dig into the matchups that surround them.
We’re coming off our fifth profitable TD week with a +1.4 unit Week 6. That pushes our season record to +8.32 units. We’re smitten with our Week 7 TD picks which are a great mix of higher probability TDs and some high-return ones. Onto the (hopeful) plane-breakers.

Injury issues started derailing the Baltimore Ravens’ 2021 plans before the schedule kicked off and stacked up week after week until the team reached a breaking point in December, when quarterback Lamar Jackson went down.
Baltimore is now healed up and will get back to what it does best: Pounding the ground. That dominating rushing attack fuels so many parts of this football team, including the squad’s performance on defense.
The Ravens are ready to return among the NFL’s defensive elite in 2022, with a twist: New coordinator Mike Macdonald. He’s adding new wrinkles to a stop unit that got stale under the blitz-happy, man-to-man schemes of Wink Martindale.
Baltimore’s NFL odds are calling for a return to glory for Joh…
Week 1 of NFL preseason can be a mishmash of rookies, college stars who haven’t put it together in the pros, and players even the most dedicated fans have never heard of. But for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it seems brand-name players will take the field on Friday night.
This could be among the most interesting games in Week 1 of the preseason with the Steelers coming off a 9-8 year led by first round pick Kenny Pickett, and the Buccaneers — who went 8-9 last season — beginning their post-Tom Brady era.
Get ready for the rare Week 1 preseason game that could have an impact on the regular season and the NFL odds.
Find out where my best bets lie in our NFL picks and predictions for Steelers vs. Buccaneers on F…

Do you need to be lucky to be good or be good to be lucky?
We’ll find out which side of that statement the Kansas City Chiefs sit on when they visit the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game on Championship Sunday.
Many believe Kansas City is lucky to be back in the conference title game for a sixth straight postseason, having defeated two injury-riddled rosters in Miami and Buffalo and benefiting from a late missed field goal in its Divisional Round win over the Bills.
Baltimore, which has been one of the unluckiest franchises in recent years due to injuries, is finally healthy and looking strong after crushing Houston in its Divisional Round matchup. That’s why the NFL odds currently have the home side laying -3.5 points for t…
Put your hand up if you thought Seattle would be among the NFL’s last unbeaten teams at the end of Week 4. Anyone? Anyone at all?
The Seahawks have benefitted from an easy schedule and injuries to key opponents to coast to a perfect 3-0 record.

Ticket prices for the 2010 FIFA World Cup range from 80 dollars for group stages to 900 dollars for the final, the organising body said Wednesday.
We are anticipating an oversubscription of tickets. Our aim is to create a fair distribution system, David Will, chairman of the FIFA ticketing committee said ahead of the official opening of ticket applications on Friday.
The most expensive ticket for the opening match for category one stadium stands located alongside the pitch is 450 dollars.
Semi-final tickets go for 600 dollars while the final costs 900 dollars.
We are not sure how much impact the current global recession will have on the tournament, said Hirst Schmidt, a FIFA consultant for the World Cup.
What we know is that football fans are …
