When the Dutch national team, also called the 'Het Nederlands Elftal' (Dutch Eleven) or 'Orenje' (Orange), is playing, everything around turns orange! And we are not overestimating! Everything, including supermarkets, bars, houses and shops has some kind of orange attire, which is no wonder since football is one of the favourite sports of the Dutch people. Obviously, they happen to be quite good at it also.

Most matches take place at Johan Cruijff ArenA in Amsterdam, and also at Philips Stadion, Eindhoven. See the schedule on the official website in the External Resources below.
