The Oranje have been on the ascendancy since Ronald Koeman took the reins, and a lof of their progress has been down to the performance of Memphis Depay.

He forced an on goal from Jonathan Tah in the 66th minute, after the Bayer Leverkusen man deflected his goal bound shot into the net, while he also showed great composure to set Wjnaldum up for Netherlands fourth of the night late into injury time.
