Netherlands boss Ronald Koeman, speaking in the post match press conference: "Wout Weghorst was able to play and he has added value to the team, he has a different way of behaving and that is what we needed.
"This should have been 4-1 in favour of us after one hour, we played very well but couldn't finish opportunities.
"The Polish squad were nearly able to find the net themselves but we were lucky and scored a second goal.
"We have good qualities, the team performed well. After 60 minutes we should have been able to score more.
"Cody Gakpo played very well. He was dangerous and we should give him the ball more often."

Wout Weghorst scores late to secure Dutch victory
FT: Poland 1-2 Netherlands
Wout Weghorst is becoming a bit of a legend in super sub circles.
Remember, in the World Cup 18 months ago, he came on with 12 to go against Argentina and scored in 83rd and 101st minute.
I reckon he's already up there with Divock Origi and Federico Macheda in the sub club.

It was a typical strikers finish from Wout Weghorst. He got ahead of his defender, on his left foot. Great finish.
Sometimes I think in the opening game it doesn't really matter how well you play as long as you get the result.
They will be pleased now. It gives them a platform to go on. They will be favourites against Austria.
The French game is going to be tough for them but at least they go into that with a bit of confidence.

BBC One
Netherlands player of the match Cody Gakpo, speaking to BBC One: "It was a tough match and a tough opponent. They scored first and it was a little more difficult, but we created a lot of good opportunities and we had to be more clinical - overall I think we performed pretty well.
"We have to analyse the game and see where we could hurt them more.
"Obviously we are a team that never gives up."
On Poland's performance: "In the second half they had some phases where they pressed us down the pitch and created some good opportunities."

I actually think he might be lucky to get back in with Adam Buksa's performance up front.
There's lots for them to be positive about going into the next game.

David Moyes

Image source, Getty ImagesI think Poland did OK, they won't be too disappointed but Holland got over the line and they did a good job in the end.
It looked like Poland shut up shop and decided not to be that aggressive and it caught them out in the end.
Ronald Koeman was brave, he took off some attacking players and gave them something different. I just think Poland dropped off the game a little bit more.

The Netherlands survive. But with some of the players they have, don't rule them out improving in the next group games and being a real threat in the rest of this tournament...

Image source, Getty ImagesWout Weghorst is anticipating before the defender that the ball will where he needs it to, on his left foot and that's a good finish.
That's exactly what he brought him on for. Just one moment.
We were talking at half-time that they had a few half chances that hadn't been put away. He gets his half chance and he is clinical with it.

Gary Rose
BBC Sport at Volksparkstadion
I saw plenty of Wout Weghorst shirts around Hamburg yesterday and it is clear to see why - he came on and did the business with the sort of finish that his team-mates had been struggling to produce for much of the game.
With France up next, this is a three big points for the Netherlands. The question now is whether Ronald Koeman decides if Weghorst has done enough to earn himself a start in that next game.

Seven of his last nine goals have come from off the bench. In those moments, you would rather have Weghorst in the box than Memphis.

The Netherlands have won seven of their past eight opening matches at a major tournament.
Wout Weghorst has scored with his past three shots at major tournaments. He got two against Argentina at the World Cup.

I reckon Sczezsny will feel frustrated he didn't keep Weghorst's effort out. He made the ground up but it went under him. But it came at him so fast. Poland have made this a really competitive game of football, their players will be gutted they got nothing to show for it.

Poland have been really gallant today.
They've made the Netherlands think about things.

That would have been special! Nicola Zalewski hits one from range which wobbles in the air but is ultimately saved.
Weghorst scores late to secure opening Netherlands win
Substitute Wout Weghorst swept in a late winner two minutes after coming on as former champions the Netherlands began their Euro 2024 campaign with victory against Poland at Hamburg’s Volksparkstadion.
In the hours before kick-off a man was shot by police close to where fans had been gathering in the city, but the game went ahead and delivered an entertaining encounter.
Poland were without their all-time top scorer Robert Lewandowski, out with a thigh injury, but put that blow behind them to stun the Dutch early on when Adam Buksa headed home.
The Netherlands had been the dominant side but missed a number of chances before Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo equalised when his deflected shot flew past Wojciech Szczesny.
The Dutch continued to create opportunities and Gakpo should have got his second before the break but sent Nathan Ake’s pullback over from close range.
Ronald Koeman’s side continued to dominate after the break and Szczesny denied Denzel Dumfries, before exciting youngster Xavi Simons drove an effort wide after being set up by Gakpo.
But just as it looked like they would have to settle for a draw, Burnley striker Weghorst - introduced in the 81st minute - snatched the win with a close-range finish moments after coming on.
It is a big win for the Netherlands with France up next for them in Group D on Friday, while Poland face Austria on the same day.
Weghorst scores immediately after coming on
The Netherlands have not won the European Championship since 1988 – when current boss Koeman was a player for them – but are among the favourites to triumph in Germany.
They possess a strong blend of youth and experience, despite losing key playmaker Frenkie de Jong just before the tournament with an ankle injury, and had been in strong form going into these Euros with back-to-back 4-0 friendly wins against Canada and Iceland.
Their confident and accurate passing led to a number of chances and they should have been out of sight, before Buksa struck with one of Poland’s first chances.
Gakpo deservedly got them level but finishing continued to be an issue for the Dutch as opportunities to take the lead came and went.
Koeman sent on one-time Manchester United loanee Weghorst as a late throw of the dice and it quickly paid off as the big striker showed the movement and finishing his side had lacked to secure three valuable points.
This was more late heroics from Weghorst, who scored a stoppage-time equaliser against Argentina at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
"Wout Weghorst was able to play and he has added value to the team. He has a different way of behaving and that is what we needed," Koeman said.
"This should have been 4-1 in favour of us after one hour. We played very well but couldn't finish opportunities.
"Cody Gakpo also played very well. He was dangerous and we should give him the ball more often."
Lewandowski was a vocal presence on the touchline for Poland
Poland had been dealt a blow in the lead up to this tournament with the news that Lewandowski would not be fit enough to start the first game.
But in the hours before kick-off, some Polish fans had suggested they were keen to see how their side would fare without the Barcelona forward and they will have been in general encouraged by this display.
The late goal was a sucker punch but Buksa, the man who came in for Lewandowski, impressed, making the most of his opportunity when he flicked in the opener at the near post.
That was Poland’s first shot on target, and they had opportunities to double their lead which may have been taken if Lewandowski had been fit enough to come off the bench.
It is expected he will be available for his nation’s second game against Austria, but Poland should be encouraged by this performance against one of the pre-tournament favourites.
Poland boss Michal Probierz said: "Lewandowski is coming back to strength and he will hopefully play against Austria. He is a very important player for us.
"Hopefully we will have more competition in this team. We are not giving up. We will do everything we can to qualify."

Poland are winless in their last 12 meetings with Netherlands in all competitions (D5 L7), since a 2-0 home win in EURO 1980 qualifying.
This will be the first ever meeting between Poland and Netherlands at a major tournament. Coming into EURO 2024, only Germany (19) have beaten more different nations at the European Championship than Netherlands (17).
Poland are playing in a fifth consecutive UEFA European Championship, having qualified for none of the previous 12 editions. They’ve won just two of their 14 matches at the tournament (excluding shootouts), with both victories coming in the 2016 group stages (D7 L5).
The Netherlands are taking part in their 11th UEFA EURO. They won the tournament the last time it was held exclusively in Germany in 1988, beating the USSR in the final (2-0).
Exactly half of Poland’s games at the UEFA European Championship have finished level (7/14), the highest ratio of draws for any side to have played in more than one edition of the tournament.
Only Germany (6) have reached the semi-finals of the UEFA EURO more often than the Netherlands (4) since 1988. However, the Netherlands haven’t made it to the final four since 2004.
The Netherlands have scored on average 1.67 goals per game at the UEFA EURO (65 goals in 39 games), the highest ratio of any team at the tournament.
None of the Netherlands’ last 12 matches at the UEFA EURO has ended in a draw (W6 L6). The last time they drew a match at the tournament was in the quarter-finals in 2004, when they knocked out Sweden on penalties (0-0 aet, 5-4 pens).
Robert Lewandowski is Poland’s highest ever goalscorer at the UEFA European Championship, netting five of their 11 goals overall in the competition. He’s scored four of their last five goals at the tournament, including each of the last three.
Only Portugal’s Bruno Fernandes (7) assisted more goals in UEFA EURO 2024 qualifying than the Netherlands’ Denzel Dumfries (5), with the Dutchman averaging an assist every 101 minutes.
