The calculations were clear from the start. Whoever won the match between the Netherlands and Turkey would be placed in first position in Group G and it would put the classification on track for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. In the event of a tie, the winners were the Turks. It was for this reason that Van Gaal stopped experimenting and was faithful to himself and his emblematic 4-3-3 that he has taken to all the places he has trained. The newspaper library does not lie; When he has given up his favorite system, his teams have played worse and reaped worse results.
The Oranje took only a minute to take advantage of the approach of its coach. At 55 seconds, Klaassen had already overtaken the Netherlands culminating in a video game play in which Ajax finished off at the first touch after making a wall with Memphis, heel included. A goal that perfectly defines everything that the Dutch school has always defended: speed, speed and a lot of talent. The play, so sophisticated and efficient, was so successful that both players decided to repeat the formula at 15 minutes, but this time with the roles changed.It was Klaassen who attended and Memphis who scored 2-0.
The two soccer players were enjoying themselves like children in a park and decided to continue their private recess without letting the other children play. Klaasen, in another attempt to partner with Memphis in the area, was brought down by Soyuncu and Orsato scored a penalty. and showed yellow to the Turkish defender. The grown-up Barça striker scored his team’s third goal a la panenka and then he had time to provoke the expulsion of Soyuncu himself for knocking him down when he faced the goal again just before the break.
Although everything was resolved in the first part, Memphis wanted to take a souvenir of the game, in this case the ball, and completed his hat-trick in the second half. This time it was Berghuis and not Klaassen who left him a gifted ball practically on the goal line for the striker to push into the net.
Til scored the fifth for the Oranje with his first international goal when there were still ten minutes to go. Already in discount, Malen completed the Netherlands set and Ünder scored the consolation goal for the Turks.
