Netherlands beat Greece 7-0, Serbia on the brink of relegation

In the Nations League evening, the Netherlands overwhelmed Greece (GRE) 7‑0, with goals from Summerville in the sixth minute, Reijnders in the twelfth, eighteenth and thirty‑third, Timber in the forty‑fourth and forty‑ninth, and Malen in the sixty‑first.

The Netherlands would need to lose 14‑0 in the final match to be eliminated, but the victory takes them almost to the quarter‑finals.

Reijnders recorded a hat‑trick, while Dumfries provided three assists in the win.

Timber scored two goals and Malen added the seventh goal, in addition to two earlier assists.

The result equals the record for the biggest win in the Nations League.
