Watch: Tijjani Reijnders scores outrageous goal for Netherlands from distance against Scotland

The Netherlands have taken the lead against Scotland in their international friendly.

In the 40th minute, Dutch midfielder Tijjani Reijnders opened the scoring with a spectacular long-range effort. Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn was left with no chance as the 25-year-old arrowed home from distance.

Scotland arguably had the better first half after hitting the woodwork through Bournemouth’s Ryan Christie, but Reijnders instantly trumped all of the hard work from the visitors in the first 45 minutes.

Netherlands will hope to hang onto their lead and then set their focus on Germany next week as they prepare for the European Championships in the summer.
