Louis van Gaal, Netherlands coach, commented on his team's victory in a Nations League game against Wales.

"I think we have a marvellous squad. This is not the first time and it won't be the last we win late. The Wales coach has changed a lot of players, more in attack than in defence, and that's why I made my changes.

I must also compliment Wales; they had the spirit to win, but they did not create chances. Their goal was a mistake as we did not clear the ball. Their header was great, but the header from Weghorst to win was fantastic.

I don't know if Memphis Depay warmed up more than other players. That's our structure, to warm-up and sit down, so they are ready to come on instantly. I can say 'Memphis, now' and then change. I thought Weghorst was injured but he stayed on, and who scored the winning goal?”.
