Holland Under-19 coach Wim van Zwam has named three PSV players, Olivier ter Horst, Eelco Horsten and Género Zeefuik, in his squad to face Russia, Moldavia and hosts Greece in the second qualifying tournament for the UEFA European Under-19 Championship. Qualification for the final tournament involves two stages, namely the qualifying and Elite rounds which precede the eight-team final tournament. Holland take on Russia on Saturday 24 May at 16:00, before they meet Greece on Monday 26 May and Moldavia on Thursday 29 May.

The Dutch players, born on or after 1 January 1989, take part in the so-called Elite round in Greece, after they finished in second place in the first qualifying tournament in Georgia. They were beaten 3-1 by Norway in October 2007, after they had already ensured qualification, following wins over hosts Georgia (2-1) and Latvia (2-0).

The Elite round features seven groups of four teams, with the winner of each section joining the hosts for the final tournament in the Czech Republic.
