Brazil superfan Gisele Bundchen gets her fair share of headlines, but the Netherlands has it’s own beauty supporting the side in the third place match—Victoria’s Secret model Doutzen Kroes. The Dutch beauty, like Bundchen, isn’t exactly a soccer WAG. Kroes is married to Dutch DJ Sunnery James, and has a child with him with a second baby on the way.
It’s unclear whether the sides are drawing any motivation from their beautiful fans, but if so Kroes has more power than Bundchen does. Brazil seems to be suffering from a quarterfinal hangover after Germany battered them 7-1, as they’ve allowed two goals on just three shots on goal by the Dutch. Robin Van Persie struck first on a penalty shot at 3’ followed by a Daley Blind goal 13 minutes later.
Brazil is winning the possession battle, but hasn’t been able to get great opportunities—they’ve attempted five shots but gotten just one on goal.
That’s sure to please Kroes, who has the whole family in on the World Cup fun.
For those who aren’t completely familiar with Kroes, she appeared in The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show from 2011 through 2013, and is recently featured in a recent Calvin Klein ad campaign with Sons of Anarchy television star Charlie Hunnam.
As wonderful as the action has been on the pitch for the duration of this Cup, if the superfans like Kroes and Bundchen promise to be in the stands, that may help viewership in America just as much.
