Germany striker Timo Werner admits it was a punch in the stomach to allow Holland to score after the visitors had dominated the UEFA Nations League match in Amsterdam. Despite enjoying the better of the opening half-hour, Virgil van Dijk's close-range header after Ryan Babel's effort had come back off the crossbar paved the way for a record-breaking 3-0 Dutch win.
Late second-half goals from Memphis Depay and Georginio Wijnaldum registered Holland's biggest win over their neighbours and a first in a competitive match since 1992. It also meant Germany have gone three competitive matches without scoring for the first time in their history and are winless after two Nations League matches.
