Match Highlights

The match, which was held at the Johan Cruyff Arena in the capital, Amsterdam, was stopped after only seven minutes due to an ambulance intervening to save one of the injured people on the Hungarian bench, and play resumed after a ten-minute pause.

Second Half and Final Score

In the second half, the Netherlands national team strengthened its advantage with a third goal scored by Denzel Dumfries, the Italian Inter Milan player, in the 64th minute.

Teon Koopmeineers completed the quartet in the 85th minute, and the Dutch team clinched the second qualifying card from the group after raising its score to 8 points in second place, followed by Hungary with five points in third place, to enter the elimination stage to escape the specter of relegation to the second level.

Group Standings

Germany is in the lead with 13 points after a sweeping victory over Bosnia, 7-0, in a match held at the same time.

Quarter-Final Qualifiers

The Dutch team became the sixth qualifiers for the quarter-finals, along with Portugal from the first group, Italy and France from the second group, and Spain, the defending champion and European champion from the fourth group.

Quarter-Final Draw

The quarter-final matches are scheduled to be held in March 2025 in a two-legged, home-and-away format, and the draw for this round will be held on November 22.
