Ernst Happel Jan Jongbloed wore number 8 because some of the players who had been in the Dutch squad at the
1974 FIFA World Cup , where the Netherlands used a purely alphabetical numbering system, were given the same numbers again in 1978. Hugo Hovenkamp withdrew from the squad before the tournament began, but after the deadline for naming replacement players had passed. The Netherlands thus went to the World Cup with only 21 players.
