Late Gakpo equaliser earns Dutch 1-1 draw against Germany to spoil Klopp's debut
AMSTERDAM: Cody Gakpo volleyed in a stoppage-time equaliser to rescue a 1-1 draw for the Netherlands against Germany in their Nations League Group A2 opener on Thursday, denying new coach Juergen Klopp a winning start.
Germany's new coach, Jürgen Klopp, experienced a disappointing 1-1 draw against the Netherlands in their Nations League Group A2 opener on Thursday. Cody Gakpo scored an equaliser in stoppage time, spoiling Klopp's debut as the new Netherlands coach, Xavi Hernandez, appointed in August. The match saw both teams make high-tempo starts, with Germany's Jamal Musiala ruled out due to muscle pain and Norway's Erling Haaland scoring twice in a 3-2 victory over Denmark in their Scandinavian Group A4 clash.
