Holland U21 still wait for their first win in the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Portugal, following a 1-1 draw with Denmark. As the team coached by Foppe de Haan had already been beaten 2-1 by Ukraine in their first group game of the tournament, they are no longer master of their own fate.Ismail AissatiPSV midfielder Ismail Aissati was included in the starting line up of the Dutch team. He was played as left midfielder in a 4-3-3 formation. Defender Michael Jakobsen made an appearance for the Danish side. The 20-year-old full back made a move from PSV to Aalborg BK in January 2005. Holland U21 were rewarded for a fine first period performance when Klaas Jan Huntelaar luckily scored the opening goal on 37 minutes. But in spite of the promising start, things went wrong again three minutes after the break. Just like during the previous encounter against Ukraine, the offside trap was evaded once again and Thomas Kahlenberg blasted the ball into the empty net. Holland U21 need a win against titleholder Italy next Monday. Moreover they will anxiously await the result of the Denmark-Ukraine game.
