Danny Makkelie has to keep Luuk de Jong and Stefan de Vrij in line in the EL final | Football

sport">Mitchel Bakker and Joshua Zirkzee will have to settle for a seat on the bench at the grand final between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich in Lisbon. But Luuk de Jong and Stefan de Vrij will certainly come into action on Friday evening in the final battle between Sevilla and Internazionale.

Makkelie

sport">A meeting led by referee Danny Makkelie, who quickly whistles himself up in the hierarchy of European football. The 37-year-old police officer from Dordrecht made his international debut in 2011 and is also destined to represent the Dutch referee corps at EURO 2020 next year.

sport">De Jong must also hope for a starting place in the Rheinstadion in Düsseldorf, where De Vrij is the best defender in Italy at the kick-off anyway. The striker started in the eighth final, quarterfinals and semi-final on the bench, but shot Sevilla to the final battle on Sunday at the expense of Manchester United: 2-1.

sport">In matches at the training of Orange, De Jong and De Vrij are almost always assigned to the same team, but tomorrow they will face each other and probably in a one-on-one as striker and stopper. So far De Jong and De Vrij met each other seven times in a match. Only in December 2011 did the striker score for FC Twente at Feyenoord, but that was twenty minutes before De Vrij came in.

Sevilla is aiming for the sixth title in the Europa League

sport">Sevilla is on the hunt for the sixth title in the Europa League (previously UEFA Cup) against Inter. The record holder from Spain won the top prize in 2006, 2007, 2014, 2015 and 2016. The Italian club is good for three victories in the second European club tournament, with the last triumph in 1998.

sport">Inter has been waiting for a top prize for nine years. In 2011 the Milan club won the Italian cup, but after that the trophy cabinet could no longer be supplemented.
