Friday's UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying game between Germany and Netherlands served up a rollercoaster ride but it was the latter that eventually emerged the victor following an epic battle. The Oranje fought back to sealed a 4-2 away win after conceding first against Die Mannschaft inside the Volksparkstadion.
Germany took full control of the game in the early minutes with Bayern Munich's Serge Gnabry opening the scoring in just nine minutes. There was not much to write home about after the first goal and it was 50 minutes later that the game's second arrived for the opposite side.
Barcelona new-boy Frenkie de Jong restored parity with a cute finish after finding his way into the box of the hosts. In the 66th minute, an own-goal by Jonathan Tah gifted Netherlands the lead but that only lasted for seven minutes with Toni Kroos equalising from the penalty spot.
With 11 minutes left until stoppage time, debutant Donyell Malen grabbed his first his goal for Ronald Koeman's man before Giorginio Wijnaldum put the final nail in the coffin in 91st minute. Watch the goals below:
