The Dutch national team qualified for the quarter-finals of the Nations League with a 4-0 win over Hungary on Saturday evening. These are the most important statistics of that match, with the return of architect Frenkie de Jong and the special figures of Denzel Dumfries in Oranje.
HThe Dutch national team did not play well against Hungary, but achieved the biggest victory in a competitive international match this calendar year with a 4-0 win. Especially before half time, the Hungarians occasionally looked dangerous in transition, but at the bottom line the big win was more than deserved. The Dutch team recorded 22 shots, eleven of which were on target. In Ronald Koeman’s second term in office, his team only scored more shots between the posts (12) in the home match against football dwarf Gibraltar. It was also the only international match in that period with more ball contacts in the penalty area than the 58 that the Dutch team managed against Hungary on Saturday evening (103 against Gibraltar).
