Finland's Chances of 2026 World Cup Look Bleak
Finland's decision to bench Viljami Sinisalo against the Netherlands may have cost them dearly, as they suffered a 4-0 defeat.
Despite Sinisalo's encouraging performance against Lithuania, where he helped his side to a 2-1 win, he was left out of the starting lineup against the Netherlands.
In his place, Finland conceded four goals, with Virgil van Dijk scoring one of them.
- Finland beat Lithuania 2-1 with Sinisalo starting.
- Finland lost 4-0 to the Netherlands with Sinisalo on the bench.
Finland's chances of booking their 2026 World Cup final ticket now look bleak.
