Louis van Gaal hoping trusted underpants prove lucky World Cup charm for Netherlands
Louis van Gaal believes the Netherlands can go all the way in the World Cup - now he’ll be wearing his lucky underpants.
“Because I am with the team for a long time in Qatar, she has got me three pairs and that is very handy. It means that when I wear one pair, the others can be washed - because I do like to wear a clean pair every day.” “I said to him ‘you are looking for your orange pants, aren’t you? You are superstitious!’ For every big Holland match he now wants to have them on.”
