Netherlands 3-0 Georgia: 5 Talking Points as Memphis Depay steers Oranje to a comprehensive win | International Friendlies 2020-21

#3. Georgia lost the plot in the second half

Despite trailing by a goal, Georgia looked more promising every time they attacked in the first half. The visitors were able to create good chances even though the hosts were playing with five at the back.

Saba Lobzhanidze should have equalized for Georgia but was denied by some brilliant defending by Stefan de Vrij.

Those rued chances really came back to haunt them as the Netherlands took complete charge of the game and gave Georgia no chance in the second half.
