As the international break begins it normally allows players a chance to unite with friends and concentrate on representing your country but several Liverpool players have been dealing with something a lot more serious.
This week marked the sad passing of Johan Neeskens, a legend in Dutch football and so the national squad marked his death with a moment of silence.
Among the squad were the Anfield trio of Virigl van Dijk, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch and it’s sure to be a moment none of them will forget.
Many of the players present will hope they can leave a legacy as great as the 73-year-old has.
