The Dutch coach is taking risks and has probably asked Virgil Van Dijk to occupy the point of the Netherlands attack alongside Wout Weghorst.

22:34 – Aké runs into Livakovic!
Noa Lang makes a superb cross and finds Nathan Aké who takes over in an acrobatic way but Dominik Livakovic is on the trajectory and grabs the leather.
22:33 – Gakpo crosses too much!
What an opportunity for Cody Gakpo who finds himself alone in the box. The Liverpool Red crosses its recovery too much. The Vatreni are doing well.
