Commentary
As they did four years ago, the Netherlands defeat Bosnia in the home fixture of the UEFA Nations League. It was a comprehensive victory from De Oranje, who made things unnecesarily difficult for themselves by coneceding twice. However, Gakpo, Reijnders, Zirkzee, and Dumfries were all at their wonderful best today, and made the difference before the flurry of substitiutions. In the end, the 5-2 scoreline flatters Bosnia a tad, as they can count themselves lucky to have even scored in this one. The xG at full-time reads Netherlands 4.09-1.13 Bosnia. Thank you for tuning into this live text commentary between Netherlands and Bosnia and Herzegovina in Group 3 of League A in the UEFA Nations League. Take care, and until next time.

Malen has an impact off the bench, as he does very well to complete the one-two with Simons. It is again wonderful football all around from the Netherlands, who are the deserved winners.
