NewsEuro 2024: Van Dijk and Gakpo feature in Netherlands draw with France

The Liverpool duo completed 90 minutes in Leipzig – with Van Dijk captaining his nation – as the points were shared in the Group D contest.

Ibrahima Konate was an unused substitute for France, while Ryan Gravenberch was also named on the bench for the Dutch.

In a competitive contest that saw a range of chances for both teams, it was the Netherlands who came closest to securing all three points.

Ronald Koeman’s outfit struck in minute 69 via Xavi Simons, though the attacker saw his low drive past goalkeeper Mike Maignan ruled out after VAR consultation for an offside.

The Netherlands and France will both return to action on Tuesday evening for a final group fixture in their bid to reach the knockout phase, taking on Austria and Poland respectively.
