Netherlands will employ special tactics to shackle Portuguese danger-men Luis Figo, Cristiano Ronaldo and Deco during their FIFA World Cup™ second-round clash, their coach said on Saturday.


Marco van Basten said the attacking trio would need extra attention in Sunday's match after some devastating displays in the group stage.

"I think we want to play as we always play using our system but we know that Portugal have some very good players like Figo, Cristiano Ronaldo and Deco," said the 41-year-old former AC Milan and Dutch striking legend.

"They're special players so we have to take care of them."
