In the first half, Cody Gakpo gave the Dutch team the lead with a cool finish for his third of the competition. Gakpo moves onto three goals and has taken his spot at the top of the goalscoring charts with Kylian Mbappe and Enner Valencia.

The second was not four minutes old when the second goal came.

The goal is just de Jong’s second of the tournament, but he adds it to a crucial assist in the first game, providing the ball for Gakpo’s opener against Senegal.

The Netherlands are all but confirmed top of the group now and will face one of the USA, Iran, Wales or England in the next round.
