Oranje trash Hungary
Netherlands thrashed Hungary 4-0
to maintain their 100 percent record in Euro 2012 qualifying
group E on Friday with Rafael Van der Vaart opening
the scoring after just eight minutes.
Wesley Sneijder set up Van der
Vaart for a shot from 13 metres out that goalkeeper
Gabor Kiraly could only tip into the left corner.
Ibrahim Afellay should have doubled
the lead in the 32nd minute but the Barcelona striker
made no mistake with his second chance on the stroke
of half time.
Robin van Persie assisted Dirk
Kuyt in the 54th to make it 3-0 and then grabbed his
20th goal in 53 games for the 2010 World Cup runners-up
eight minutes later.
The Dutch, who beat the Hungarians
6-1 in a friendly before last year's World Cup in South
Africa, now have 15 points from their five matches while
Hungary stay second on nine.
