    Time:90'
    • Netherlands
    • San Marino
    • 90' The referee puts the massacre to an end in Eindhoven and it has finished 11-0 to the home team, incredible stuff.
    • 90' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Georginio Wijnaldum comes off the bench to net the last goal of the match and rub even more salt into the wounds of the visitors.
    • 87' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Wesley Sneijder gets his second and his teams 10th. San Marino have taken some hammerings in their time but this is up there with the worst of them.
    • 85' Van Persie is the first Holland player to score 4 goals in a ECQ since Marco van Basten netted a record 5 vs Malta in December 1990.
    • 79' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Not to be outdone Van Persie gets in on the action again and scores his fourth, again good work from Strootman whose back heel fell to Van Persie 12 yards out and he hammered it home. 9-0
    • 77' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Huntelaar gets another and makes it eight for his country. Unselfish play from Strootman left him with the simplest of finishes.
    • 75' Huntelaar has now scored 10 European Championship qualifying goals for the Netherlands putting him equal third on the all-time list with Ruud Gullit, Robin Van Persie is just one behind him now though with nine, the same as Ruud van Nistelrooy
    • 68' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Van Persie gets his hat-trick! Huntelaar's volley was well kept out by Simoncini but the Arsenal man was on hand to tap home the rebound, 7-0. This match has become the biggest victory under Bert van Marwijk as coach of The Netherlands. The biggest victory so far was against Hungary on 5 July 2010 (6-1)
    • 65' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Great team goal from the home side as Sneijder slides in Kuyt down the inside right channel, he almost certainly could have scored himself but sqaured it for Van Persie who bundled it over the line from five yards to make it 6-0.
    • 56' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Klaas-Jan Huntelaar makes it five for the Dutch after Sneijder narrowly failed to do so the minute before, it just depends how many they want here really. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has now scored 9 goals in the current Euro qualifying campaign, a Dutch record. He has also scored 13 goals in 9 official matches for club and country this season
    • 49' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! After easing off a little in the latter stages of the first half the Dutch have come out flying again at the start of the second as Dirk Kuyt makes it four.
    • 17' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! Less than 20 minutes in and it is three for the home side and it is the Everton man Johnny Heitinga who grabs his seventh goal for his country.
    • 12' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! This is looking like it could be the romp that people were expecting. Inter Milan's Wesley Sneijder makes it two for the Dutch.
    • 7' GOAL FOR NETHERLANDS!!! It didn't take long for the goals to start in Eindhoven and it is Robin van Persie who opens the scoring.
    • - We are just a few minutes away from the Netherlands taking on San Marino, potentially the highest scoring game of the evening
