Here are our player ratings for the Netherlands in their 1-1 draw against Poland.

Bart Verbruggen 6/10: Had nothing to do all night and had no chance with the Cash equaliser.

Denzel Dumfries 7/10: Again looked the Netherlands biggest chance for a goal. His header for the opener was excellent.

Micky van de Ven 6/10: Looked good defensively and going forward until Cash was left in too much space. He didn’t get there quick enough to stop the equaliser.

Virgil van Dijk 6/10: Had no issues defensively but apart from one pass in the first half, he didn’t get the ball moving upfield enough. Kept Lewandowski quiet throughout.

Jan Paul van Hecke 5.5/10: Looked troubled by the pace of Poland at times. Not his finest night in Oranje and he went off after a smack in the nose.

Tijjani Reijnders 6/10: Hit the post in the first half and looked lively but that faded completely in the second half.

Ryan Gravenberch 6.5/10: Looked to get on the ball and had some nice touches and runs forward. Got in some good positions were the final ball was missing.

Frenkie de Jong 6.5/10: As usual looked to get on the ball as much as possible and created some good moves forward.

Xavi Simons 5.5/10: Didn’t manage to get into the game at all. Struggled in possession and looked lost. Provided no presence on the right

Cody Gakpo 6.5/10: Netherlands looked to Gakpo a lot to make things happen and he did at times. However, he didn’t provide that killer spark for a second goal.

Memphis Depay 6/10: Gave the assist for the corner but did little else up front apart from the odd flick. His lack of pace was alarming at times when he had space.
