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.

Notes

Each national team had to submit a squad of 22 players. All the teams included 3 goalkeepers, except Mexico who only called two.

gollark: I mostly just use f2fs these days.
gollark: There are probably mods with fishes on older versions.
gollark: Isn't there also a mod which makes Minecraft properly handle signals or something?
gollark: There are mods for it.
gollark: The fusion plant made several billion RF/t or something, but this never actually ended up being used anywhere since everyone involved in the project had their own dedicated fusion reactors.
