The Netherlands have finally broken their jinx at Euro 2024, having failed to reach the quarterfinals of this competition previously since 2008.
Now they will be hoping to end another long wait, with their last victory in this competition coming back in 1988, when current head coach Ronald Koeman was a player in an all-star iconic team.
The Netherlands have failed to live up to their potential since then.
They reached the last eight of the 2022 World Cup, which was an improvement given they did not even qualify for the previous edition in Russia. Then, after finishing third in the 2014 World Cup, Netherlands went stale at international events, and did not qualify for the 2016 European Championship either.
In 2020 they won all three of their Euros group games, before being dumped out by the Czech Republic at the last-16 stage.
Euro 2024 presents another chance at redemption. That historic 1988 triumph came on German soil, so the Virgil van Dijk-led side will be hoping to take inspiration as they go deep into the knockout stages.
Next up is a quarterfinal clash with Turkey, who beat Austria 2-1 in the Round of 16.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of their next game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff times and their player roster.

When is Netherlands vs. Turkey Euro 2024 quarterfinal?
Placed in Group D alongside France, Austria and Poland, Netherlands started their Euro 2024 campaign with a 2-1 victory over Poland in Hamburg on June 16. Striker Wout Weghorst came off the bench to fire home a late winning goal.
The Oranje then battled hard for a 0-0 draw with fellow heavyweights France at Leipzig's Red Bull Arena on June 21, with Xavi Simons seeing a goal controversially disallowed by VAR.
In a game with Austria to decide the group winners, the Dutch were beaten 3-2, meaning they qualified for the Round of 16 in third place.
That meant they faced Romania on July 2, with Cody Gakpo helping to fire them into the last eight in a 3-0 win. Next they will face Turkey after their stunning run to the last eight.
