Matthijs De Ligt goal Vs England: Watch De Ligt equalize score against England in Nations league semi-final

Matthijs De Ligt goal Vs England: Wath Matthijs De Ligt score against England to equalize the score against England in the Nations league.

The match between Netherlands and England has turned interesting as a goal by De Ligt in the 73rd minute has brought back the Dutch team back into the game.

Netherlands received a major setback in the game after they conceded a penalty, when De Ligt made a reckless challenge against Marcus Rashford, and see the three lions to take a lead in the game.

For several following minutes, Netherlands tried to make a comeback but failed, despite all the chances. The English defense was solid while dealing with the Dutch national team.

However, the Oranjes pulled a comeback in the late minutes of the game, as Mathhijs De Ligt score past a header from a corner by Memphis Depay and compensated the howler he made in the previous half.

The 19-year-old defender was unmarked inside the box, while he received a pin-point pass from Depay in the 73rd minute of the game.

The Dutch defender then pushed the ball inside the net at the top corner, which was impossible for Jordan Pickford, considering its pace and accuracy.

The game has changed as England were looking concrete with their lead, but a one goal lead is always decieving and can be overturned anytime. Same mentality was followed by the Dutch side, until they found the net.

Nevertheless, while entering into the dying minutes of the regular time, it seems that the game will surely get into the extra-time.
