Team Netherlands in a friendly match figured out with Portugal 3: 0.
Note that all three goals the Dutch held in the first half of the meeting. Goals played by Memphis Depai (12 minutes), Ryan Babel (32) and Virgil van Dyck (45 + 2) provided the nominal guests with a comfortable advantage.
The second half was more active than the current champions of Europe, the Portuguese, but they failed to realize their intentions in goals scored. Together with the devastating defeat, the scoring super series of the leader of Portugal and Madrid "Cristiano Ronaldo", who before this meeting totaled 9 fights. In these matches, the star forward managed to excel as much as 19 times. In total, the striker scored 44 goals this season and gave 13 assists.
At the 61st minute of the confrontation, the Portuguese remained in the minority - a red card in front of him saw defender Joao Cancell.
It is interesting that the Netherlands, for the first time since 1991, managed to outplay Portugal. After ten games, the team of Ronald Cooman never won from his opponent - 6 defeats and 4 draws.
Recall that the Netherlands could not get through to the final part of the World Cup, which in the summer of 2018 will Russia.
