Nations League Germany and the Netherlands storm into the quarter-finals thanks to resounding victories

The Netherlands qualify for the Nations League quarter-finals with a 4:0 home win against Hungary. Germany secured group victory with a scoring feast against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Hungary experienced a difficult scenario during their visit to Amsterdam, where 2nd place in Group 3 was at stake. The game had to be interrupted after just a few minutes because assistant coach Adam Szalai collapsed on the bench. The players had only just decided to continue the match after the ten-minute interruption when the referee was contacted by the VAR.

Immediately before the stoppage, a handball was committed in Hungary's own penalty area. Wout Weghorst converted the penalty. Cody Gakpo with another penalty, Denzel Dumfries and Teun Koopmeiners ensured a clear verdict in favor of the Dutch, who also hit the edge of the goal twice.

Germany had a great time against Bosnia-Herzegovina at the Europa-Park Stadium in Freiburg, celebrating their biggest win since Julian Nagelsmann took over as national coach with a 7-0 victory. Jamal Musiala scored after just 90 seconds to make it 1:0 against a defense led by Basel's Adrian Barisic, before Tim Kleindienst, who plays for Mönchengladbach under Gerardo Seoane, and Granit Xhaka's Leverkusen team-mate Florian Wirtz each scored a brace. The last time Germany had won more emphatically against Liechtenstein was three years ago.
