Arjen Robben admits that the Netherlands' loss to Denmark reminded him of the Champions League final defeat to Chelsea.

Netherlands forward Arjen Robben has said that the team's defeat to Denmark felt like the Champions League final all over again.

Robben, who had a number of opportunities to find the back of the net, admits that the Dutch team are themselves to blame for the defeat. However, he adds that the tournament is still far from over.

"This is incredible," he said. "I don't want to talk about the Champions League final too much, but this looked liked it.

"The fact we didn't convert our opportunities into goals means the blame lies with ourselves. I do not know if it was down to a lack of focus or concentration or bad luck.

"Do I still have faith? Yes. Our European campaign is not over."
