Nice evening for Memphis Depay and for the Netherlands. During the oranje card against Malta (8-0), the former OL striker, author of a double, equaled the Robin Van Persie Robin Record in Dutch selection (50).
With another double of Donyell Malen, and goals from Virgil Van Dijk, Xavi Simons, Noa Lang and Micky Van de Ven, the Netherlands joined Poland at the top of group G of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Poland played this Tuesday evening in Finland, but the meeting was interrupted at 2-1 in favor of the locals after the discomfort of a spectator.
In group H, Romania has relaunched itself well by beating Cyprus (2-0) while Austria, victorious in Saint-Marin (0-4), has taken six possible points so far.
Finally, in group K (that of England), Serbia did not blaze against Andorra (3-0) despite the hat-trick of Aleksandar Mitrovic, while Albania was drawn in Latvia (1-1).
