Summary
The KNVB (Dutch football association) held a meeting with the Moroccan football federation ahead of their World Cup Round of 16 match, emphasizing sportsmanship, respect, and the long-standing bond between the two countries. The Dutch delegation presented a Netherlands shirt to the Moroccan delegation. This stands in stark contrast to PVV leader Geert Wilders' social media post, where he depicted himself as a referee showing a red card to a Moroccan player with the caption 'It'll be fine.'
