The Lithuanian national football team posed a serious challenge to one of the best teams in Europe, the Netherlands.

After managing to erase a two-goal deficit, Lithuania ultimately fell to the guests with a score of 2:3.

The Dutch began to dominate from the start of the match, and it took only 11 minutes for the first goal, scored by Memphis Depay, who with this goal became the highest-scoring player in the history of the Netherlands national team.

In the 33rd minute, Quintenas Timber doubled the guests' advantage, and it seemed that the Dutch only had formalities left in the match.

However, the Lithuanians did not give up, and in the 36th minute, Gvidas Gineitis reduced the hosts' deficit with a great shot.

In the 43rd minute, G. Gineitis expertly lifted a free kick, and Edvinas Girdvainis equalized the score with a header.

In the second half, it was not easy for the Netherlands to create chances, but in the 64th minute, M. Depay scored the winning goal with a header.
