The Netherlands national football team won a crazy friendly against Uzbekistan. The team won 2-1 thanks to two penalties from Cody Gakpo, including one in injury time.
The Netherlands national football team lost the farewell match against Algeria last week and hoped to achieve a better result against Uzbekistan to go to the World Cup with a good feeling.
Verbruggen's injury and Til's red card
Goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen was injured and Guus Til received a surprising red card in the final phase. It is still unclear whether he will be fit in time for the first World Cup match against Japan next Sunday.
Last result: Netherlands 5-1 Sweden (2026-06-20). Next fixture: vs Tunisia (away, 2026-06-25).
