Van Dijk’s 93rd-minute penalty gives Dutch win

 Liverpool defender, Virgil van Dijk, scored a 93rd-minute penalty to give the Netherlands a crucial victo­ry against Greece in Euro 2024 qualifying.

Van Dijk converted from the spot after Denzel Dumfries was fouled in the box to edge his team up to second place in Group B.

Greece coach, Gus Poyet, received a red card for his protes­tations.

The Netherlands are level on points with third-placed Greece but lead the head-to-head having beaten them twice.
