van Bommel goal gives Holland victory
October 15, 2008
Holland look on course to qualify for the 2010 World Cup Finals in South Africa after securing a crucial away victory in Norway this evening.
After a goaless first half, in which Norway failed to significantly threaten a Dutch side who showed little creativity themselves.
Mid-way through the second half however, a fine volley from Mark van Bommel was enough to secure the only goal of the game and three crucial points for Holland.
Dirk Kuyt had hit the bar just a minute earlier as Holland turned on the pressure.
With nine points from three games, the Dutch have a comfortable lead in Group 9 as all other opponents are at least five points away.
