    Netherlands 0-0 Wales

    Hans Hateboer wins the first corner of the game, Joe Rodon heads clear.

    Wales' defending so far has been excellent.

  2. Post update

    Netherlands 0-0 Wales

    Wales get on the ball for the first time.

    Brennan Johnson and Harry Wilson will both be in your fantasy football team at some point next season, I'd wager.

    So comfortable on the ball.

  3. Mepham impressive

    Netherland 0-0 Wales

    Iwan Roberts

    Former Wales striker and BBC pundit

    Very good defending from Chris Mepham, he's been very impressive in these last few games.

  4. Post update

    Netherlands 0-0 Wales

    Another pacy break from the Netherlands as Matt Smith gives the ball away, but Chris Mepham picked Vincent Jansen's pocket.

  5. Post update

    Netherlands 0-0 Wales

    Wing-back-wise, it's Wes Burns on the left and Sorba Thomas on the right.

  6. Post update

    Netherlands 0-0 Wales

    Really interesting test for a tired Wales side tonight.

    Surely the thought of a place on the plane to Qatar will lift tired minds.

    The hosts start on the attack, but Joe Rodon heads clear the danger.

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    "A picture of orange," Rob Phillips tells BBC Radio Wales.

    And of course, of course, Netherlands are playing in black.

    Wales play in their yellow kit tonight.

  9. That Ramsey assist

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    I mean, it's not been the greatest set of Nations League results for Wales, but as for moments...

    Anyone else watched this 85 times or so?

  10. Post update

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    The players emerge to a sea of orange.

    It's like a 1990s advert for a certain fizzy drink.

    It's making me think of Barry Davies, all this orange.

    Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau is now belting out.

  11. 'Fantastic turnout from Wales fans'

    It's not a competition, but there is a fantastic turnout from the Welsh fans here in Rotterdam.

    This time last week around 500 Dutch fans made the journey to Cardiff, but there are easily over 2,000 Wales supporters making their voices heard away to my left.

    There is a reason Rob Page has called them "the best in world football".

  12. Post update

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Louis van Gaal and his Dutch coaching staff make their way over to the dugout, followed by both sets of players as they head out of the tunnel to walk on to the pitch.

    Anthems coming up shortly.

  13. Wales face mounting injury issues

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Injuries and withdrawals are mounting for Wales as they end a hectic fortnight with tonight's match against the Netherlands.

    The game in Rotterdam is Wales' fifth fixture since 1 June.

    In that time, they have lost to Poland and the Netherlands, drawn with Belgium and beaten Ukraine in their World Cup play-off final.

    Wales will be without the injured Neco Williams, Danny Ward, Joe Morrell and Joe Allen in Rotterdam.

    They were already without striker Kieffer Moore, who withdrew from the squad with a back issue, while wing-back Rhys Norrington-Davies is suspended.

  14. A stadium full of history

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    A full house is expected at Stadion Feijenoord this evening, or as the locals call it De Kuip.

    Twice the venue for the European Cup final, in 1982 when Aston Villa were triumphant over Bayern Munich and in 1972 when Feyernoord's Eredivisie rivals Ajax beat Inter Milan.

    De Kuip also hosted the Euro 2000 final, when David Trezeguet scored the now-defunct golden goal as France beat Italy.

    Today there is a sea of orange, with a bright red section above the goal to the south of the stadium.

    A nice touch too from the Dutch crowd as they applaud Wales' qualification for the 2022 World Cup.

  15. 'Going to the Championship would not be detrimental to Bale'

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Nathan Blake

    Former Wales striker on BBC Radio Wales

    Playing in the Championship is a big ask because of the commitment of games.

    At his age his quality just remains, it doesn't matter what tournament or who he's playing against, he's just quality, he's proven that time and time again.

    I don't think going to the Championship would be detrimental to him at his age, I just think it's all about fitness for Gareth.

    If he can maintain a level of fitness up until the World Cup regardless of where he's playing, we've seen when he's not playing for Real Madrid and he comes to Wales he still puts in astronomical performances.

  16. Bale not ruling out Cardiff move

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Now then. This, is not nothing.

    Gareth Bale says he does not know who he will play club football for next season, but has not ruled out joining his hometown club Cardiff City.

    "Making the right move with my next move is massively important," Bale says. "I have options.

    "I haven't really looked at everything yet. I know possible destinations.

    "I don't know if the standard makes too much difference, I am confident I will never lose my quality on the ball.

    "I need more game time. I have been available for quite a lot of the games in Spain but I didn't get picked so people assumed I was injured.

    "It's that perception. People think I play a lot of golf when I actually don't, people think I'm injured a lot but I'm actually not. The press tend to write a lot of things that aren't accurate and people believe it and it creates a narrative."

  17. Johnson's first Wales goal an 'unbelievable feeling'

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Speaking of Brennan Johnson, he says scoring the late equaliser in that 1-1 draw against Belgium - his first Wales goal - was an "unbelievable feeling and one I hope to get again".

    The linesman initially ruled Johnson's 85th minute goal offside before the decision was overturned by VAR.

    "I got two celebrations out of it, so that was a bonus," said the delighted Nottingham Forest forward.

  18. Johnson a 'wonderful talent', says Page

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Last time out on Saturday, Wales earned an impressive 1-1 draw with Belgium.

    Afterwards, Wales manager Rob Page described Brennan Johnson as a "wonderful talent" following the forward's late equaliser.

    The goal, his first at international level, came with just five minutes to play, as Wales earned a first point in the top tier of the Nations League.

    It has been a whirlwind couple weeks for the 21-year-old, who also secured promotion to the Premier League with Nottingham Forest in May.

    "There's more to come," said Page.

    "He's a wonderful talent, I'm looking forward to watching him in the Premier League next season and watching him grow with us.

    "Every time he comes on he impresses and shows his worth, he's deserved his goal and he's got a lot more to come."

  19. Netherlands take under-21 bragging rights

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    The Netherlands got the better of Wales when the teams met in Cardiff last Wednesday, and the Dutch came out on top when their under-21 sides played in Llanelli on Saturday.

    The Netherlands dominated but, despite chances for Brian Brobbey and Quinten Timber, the first half of their European Championship qualifier ended goalless.

    Wales defended doggedly and had their first shot after an hour as Luke Jephcott saw an effort saved.

    Brobbey wasted a glorious close-range chance but, with four minutes left, Lutsharel Geertruida broke Wales' resistance.

    The Netherlands' eighth victory from 10 matches saw them finish their qualifying campaign unbeaten as the winners of Group E.

    Wales, whose qualification hopes had already gone, stayed fifth.

  20. Bale and Page back Rodon for regular Spurs action

    Netherlands v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Barring injury, Joe Rodon will definitely be in Wales' World Cup squad. Manager Rob Page and captain Gareth Bale have called for the centre-back to get more playing time at Tottenham.

    The 24-year-old joined Spurs in October 2020 but has made just 15 appearances in the Premier League since arriving.

    "For me he should be playing at Tottenham, he's shown time and again how good he is," said Bale.

    "He's a top professional, a great young player, he knows himself he needs to be playing week in week out and he wants to be playing week in week out.

    "I don't think he's had the opportunity to play a consistent run of games for Tottenham, I think if he did he'd be fantastic for them.

    "Even if he has to go to another team he will strengthen them, no matter who they are."
