Netherlands 1-2 Greece: Blind's men downed as Oranje problems continue

Greece defeated Netherlands for the first time, coming from behind to win 2-1 at the Philips Stadion and end the hosts' four-game unbeaten run.

Giannis Gianniotas grabbed the winner in the 74th minute to frustrate the home fans after Georginio Wijnaldum's opener had been cancelled out by Kostas Mitroglou levelling with an unchallenged header.

Both sides failed to qualify for Euro 2016, and begin their 2018 World Cup campaigns in the coming days; Netherlands travelling to Sweden, Greece to Gibraltar.

  1. Sweden will meet Netherlands in today's game played at Friends Arena, from Solna, Stockholm. In their last meeting, Sweden won the match with 3:2. I wonder if Louis van Gaal's team prepared us with a surprise for today. Based on the past results of the two teams, I would expect for this game to be quite balanced and finish in a draw. It should be interesting to see if Vincent Janssen will score during this match as he has a good average in terms of goals scored / match.
