Cody Gakpo scored to help the Netherlands to a 4-0 win over Hungary in Saturday’s UEFA Nations League action.

The Liverpool forward struck from the penalty spot in first-half stoppage time to put a Dutch side captained by Virgil van Dijk and also including Ryan Gravenberch two goals to the good against their opponents, who were skippered by Dominik Szoboszlai.

The hosts then added two more goals after the break in Amsterdam, with Gakpo and Gravenberch both substituted around 10 minutes from full-time. Van Dijk and Szoboszlai finished the game.

Elsewhere in the Nations League, Lewis Koumas came off the bench late on as Wales drew 0-0 with Turkiye.

And in U19 European Championship qualification, Trey Nyoni made his England debut at that level as a substitute in a 2-1 win over Bulgaria, while Trent Kone-Doherty came off the bench to provide an assist as the Republic of Ireland beat Azerbaijan 4-0.
