Overview

• Memphis Depay struck in the 12th minute from a Cody Gakpo cross and later headed in from a Denzel Dumfries delivery to reach 52 international goals.
• Netherlands led 2-0 after Quinten Timber’s finish before Lithuania rallied through Gvidas Gineitis and Edvinas Girdvainis to level in Kaunas.
• The result keeps the Oranje atop Group G on 10 points, three clear of Poland and Finland, with only the group winner qualifying directly for 2026.
• Depay’s 52 goals have come in 104 caps, surpassing Robin van Persie’s 50, which were set in two fewer appearances.
• Frenkie de Jong missed out injured as Ronald Koeman reshuffled his lineup and made early substitutions in a match that again exposed defensive lapses.
