FIFA WC: Netherlands Beat Tunisia To Book Knockout Date With Morocco
Kansas City Stadium: The Netherlands grabbed two early goals to help secure top spot in Group F and qualify for the Round of 32 after they overcame already eliminated Tunisia 3-1 here at Kansas City Stadium.
Ronald Koeman's team opened the final group match against Tunisia like the lightning bolts. Within seven minutes, Oranje were 0-2 up thanks to an own goal and a strike by Brian Brobbey. The second half became tense for a moment, but it was Jan Paul van Hecke who put an end to all uncertainty with his first international goal.
The Dutch needed just three minutes to break the deadlock against their already-eliminated opponents, with captain Ellyes Skhiri slicing into his own net from Denzel Dumfries’ cross as he looked to prevent the ball reaching Brian Brobbey.
