Italy 1-1 Netherlands: Donny van de Beek scores first international goal

Donny van de Beek
Italy are now unbeaten in their past 23 home games

The Netherlands finally scored under new manager Frank de Boer as they held Italy to a 1-1 Nations League draw in Bergamo.

Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek slammed in a loose ball to end a drought of 323 minutes under the former Crystal Palace boss.

Winger Lorenzo Pellegrini had put Italy ahead after a fine pass from Nicolo Barella.

Both sides have been leapfrogged in Group A1 by Poland.

Lazio striker Ciro Immobile and Lyon forward Memphis Depay traded second-half chances but neither side could find a way through.

Poland's comfortable 3-0 win at home to Bosnia-Herzegovina, with Robert Lewandowski scoring twice, has put them in charge of the group, with only the winners heading to next year's finals.
