“It is a very unpleasant, sour, but also crazy evening for us,” Kuyt said in front of the camera ESPN. “It’s not that we are completely outplayed. We concede goals from individual mistakes, from corners, from throw-ins, from a long ball from the keeper. But 7-0 is scandalous. That’s how the boys feel.”

Kuyt: “It sounds crazy, but we have to take the lead at the beginning after a very big chance. After that we had a lot of chances, but today everything went against us when it came to taking advantage of them. But everything was not okay.

‘We should be ashamed and learn from this.’

Midfielder Joep van der Sluijs was also disappointed afterwards. “I think everyone should look in the mirror and think about what he put on the mat tonight. We should be ashamed and learn from this. This should not happen again.”
