Ronald Koeman Resigns After Netherlands Exit

Ronald Koeman announced his immediate resignation as Netherlands head coach just hours after Morocco eliminated the Dutch from the World Cup in a dramatic penalty shootout.

The 63-year-old took full responsibility for the early exit, saying the team 'fell short'.

The Netherlands was eliminated in the Round of 32, a disappointing result for a team that had been considered a dark horse contender.

The Dutch FA issued a sharp condemnation of the online racist abuse targeting players who missed penalties in the shootout.
