– It was a case of history repeated between Netherlands and Wales, as the Dutch responded to a late leveller with an even later winner, just as they did in the recent meeting between the two.

– In Cardiff on June 8, Wales equalised in injury time only to see Wout Weghorst head home a winner in almost the very next move and, crazily enough, a near identical ending would transpire.

– Noa Lang put the Dutch ahead with his first ever senior international goal, before Cody Gakpo made it 2-0 soon after.

– However, minutes later, Brennan Johnson made it 2-1 to gives Wales hope going into the second half.

– Wales thought they had salvaged a point, again, as they were awarded a penalty in injury time, which Gareth Bale converted.

– But they were to suffer heartbreak once again as Memphis Depay went on to score a winner in the next attack.
