Northern Ireland v Netherlands Live Commentary, 11/16/19

Netherlands need only a point to secure their place in Euro 2020 following their triumphs over Northern Ireland and Belarus in the last round of fixtures. Georginio Wijnaldum's brace guided them to victory on the road in Minsk after previously battling back from a goal down to overcome the Irish on home soil. The Oranje had been impressive in qualifying, losing only once to Germany back in March. Ronald Koeman's men wil be looking to book their place in the competition next summer in style with three points tonight.

Northern Ireland need a positive result from tonight's contest to keep their hopes of qualifying automatically for Euro 2020 alive.
