Late Penalty Goal by Virgil Van Dijk Rescues the Netherlands, Ties with Greece in Group B Fight

A penalty goal from Virgil Van Dijk in the 93rd minute serves to rescue the Netherlands in a very gray match and in which a lot was at stake: thanks to this victory they tie on points with Greece precisely in their fight for second place in group Bclearly dominated by France. It is true that the tulips have won the two games before Gustavo Poyet’s team and now have a better chance of securing a ticket for the 2024 Euro Cup.

The first part left little notable except a penalty that Vlachodimos saved from Weghorst. The Greek goalkeeper was one of the best in the game, because after the break gave Bergwijn a clear and supported his team at some point. Koeman brought in Grind in the second half and the team gained a little more depth but the reward did not come until injury time: penalty on Brobbey indicated and after seeing it in the VAR, Hernández Hernández is even clearer that it is. Van Dijk converts the maximum penalty, thus helping an Oranje depleted by casualties on their way to reaching the Euros.
