Lithuania v Netherlands

Memphis Depay became the Netherlands' all-time leading goalscorer in the World Cup qualifying win over Lithuania on Sunday.

Corinthians forward Depay, 31, scored his record-setting 51st international goal in the 11th minute, surpassing Robin van Persie's tally.

Depay wasn't done there, scoring the winner as Netherlands snuck past Lithuania 3-2 after a spirited fightback from the hosts.

The Dutch were 2-0 up after Quinten Timber's strike before goals from Gvidas Ginetis and Edvinas Girdvainis got Lithuania level in an entertaining first half.

Then, with half-an-hour remaining, Depay nodded home a Denzel Dumfries cross to hand Ronald Koeman's side the win.
