Dutch windmills become football emblem

The Dutch national team is nicknamed "The Flying Dutchmen," a reference to the windmills that are widespread throughout the country. These windmills were historically used to help drain water from the low-lying lands, which can be up to 26% below sea level. These windmills are a Dutch heritage symbol, with over two thousand of the original ten thousand still standing and operational after being maintained by volunteers. They are used for activities such as grinding grains and making paper. The Dutch team has reached the FIFA World Cup final three times but has never won the title. They were contenders in 1974, 1978, and 2010.
