Holland coach Marco van Basten will urge his players to give their all in their last Group C outing, even though a defeat against Romania on Tuesday would see pre-tournament favourites France and Italy eliminated from Euro 2008.

The Dutch clinched top spot in the 'Group of Death' and a place in the quarter-finals with their 4-1 demolition of the French in Bern.

"We are first in the group whatever happens and we are very happy about that," said the former AC Milan striker. "But we have an obligation to play well (against Romania), to the players and the supporters."

He added: "The result may not be too important for us and we do not have to win, but we should give ourselves some aims and see if we can achieve those aims.

"We have to do our utmost to play well in every match."

Against the French, Holland were again in stunning form going forward.

Dirk Kuyt broke the deadlock with an eighth-minute header, but they had to weather a storm at the end of the first half and the start of the second period as France searched for an equaliser.

The introduction after the interval of Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie proved decisive though, both players scoring to sandwich a consolation goal by France's former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry.

Wesley Sneijder applied the coup de grace for Holland with a fourth in injury time.
