England 1-2 Netherlands, International friendly 2016: As it happened

That is it for this particular live blog, but you can read IBTimes UK sports editor Nick Howson's match report here. Stay with us for further reaction from Wembley and more on the breaking news that Aston Villa have parted company with manager Remi Garde after just five months in charge.

Goodnight.

The players and managers prematurely begin to shake hands after a whistle from the referee, but the match continues and Barkley's final cross is cleared by Bruma. Now it really is over.

A very late and surely final substitution from the Netherlands with just a minute left to play. Southampton midfielder Clasie comes on in place of goal-scorer Janssen.

Drinkwater is named by the sponsors as man of the match on his England debut. Three minutes of added time signalled for the hosts to find an equaliser.

Kane rarely needs a second invitation to shoot. After receiving possession from Jagielka, he easily cuts inside Blind before dragging a left-footed shot into the side netting.

Drinkwater's international debut comes to an end six minutes from time as the Leicester man is replaced by Dier.

Alli will now take the field. Milner is off and Jagielka takes over as captain. Blind has made a change at left-back, with Sunderland's Van Aanholt on for Willems.

Hodgson was preparing to send on Alli before that goal, but the Tottenham midfielder has now momentarily returned to his seat.

Furious protestations from England after Bazoer's low pass is collected by Janssen, who barges Jagielka out of the way before passing across the face of goal for substitute Narsingh to powerfully sidefoot into the back of the net.

The hosts are adamant that was a foul, but referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz is utterly unconvinced and the Netherlands lead for the first time with less than 15 minutes left to play.

Goal: England 1-2 Netherlands (Luciano Narsingh)

A smart pass from Kane finds Milner, whose cross towards the back post is cut out by a sliding Bazoer. Walker then beats Willems and hangs a ball towards Barkley that Zoet confidently punches clear.

Two more changes from England, with Hodgson sending on Phil Jagielka and Kane in place of Smalling and Lallana. 20 minutes plus stoppage time remaining.

Walcott, understandably eager to make an impression with his place in the squad widely considered to be under threat, speeds down the right channel before flashing a shot just over.

Vardy forces Zoet into a diving save with a fierce strike from distance. Stones then plays in Walcott with a defence-splitting pass but his shot is deflected behind by Blind.

IBTimes UK sport editor Nick Howson at Wembley:

Roy Hodgson may have been able to overlook a bit of rustiness after the performance in Berlin, but he will be less forgiving of how standards have slipped tonight. Netherlands level from almost their only attack as Vincent Janssen thrashes home a penalty - an opportunity created by John Stones slipping in possession. It has not been the best of evenings for the Everton man.

The first yellow card of the evening is awarded to Bruma for a robust challenge on Vardy. Hodgson then utilises his bench with Walcott and Nathaniel Clyne replacing Sturridge and Rose.

England have started the second half in good spirits, but they concede an equaliser after Rose, who should have been whistled for a spot-kick in the first half after clearly bringing down Veltman, jumps in the box to block Narsingh's cross and is penalised for handball.

AZ striker Janssen, winning just his second senior cap tonight, steps up to send Forster the wrong way with a cool effort into the top corner. He had been denied by the goalkeeper just moments before following a costly slip from Stones.

Goal: England 1-1 Netherlands (Vincent Janssen)

Powerful running from Barkley, who charges through the centre of the pitch before ignoring the shouts from Sturridge and instead picking out Lallana.

The Liverpool midfielder then curls an effort over the crossbar.

An England throw-in causes trouble for the Netherlands backline. Sturridge is able to drift beyond Blind before a low shot hits the side netting.

The second half is up and running at Wembley. No further changes.

To bring you up to date with selected events from elsewhere, the Republic of Ireland are currently drawing 2-2 with Slovakia. Former Chelsea winger Miroslav Stoch gave England's Euro 2016 Group B rivals the lead in Dublin before Shane Long equalised from the penalty spot.

James McClean also netted from 12 yards soon after, although the scores are currently level in the early stages of the second half after Reading's Paul McShane deflected a Peter Pekarík cross beyond Darren Randolph.

Scotland are beating Denmark 1-0 after Matt Ritchie capitalised on Daniel Agger's early error, while Germany lead Italy 3-0 thanks to Toni Kroos, Mario Gotze and Jonas Hector. In Leiria, Luis Nani and Cristiano Ronaldo have both notched for Portugal against Belgium.

Leicester midfielder N'Golo Kante has scored for France along with André-Pierre Gignac. They are easing past Romania 2-0.

IBTimes UK sport editor Nick Howson at Wembley:

After providing a 40-minute dose of realism, England produce one move which cuts Netherlands apart and gets the dreamers dreaming once again. Jamie Vardy's fairytale continues and undoubtedly Twitter will soon be awash of stories of scoring against Fareham Town reserves on a cold Thursday night five years ago. Nevertheless, it was a fine move from England which has capped a dreadful half of football. Very much after the Lord Mayor's show this one.

Half-time

England 1-0 Netherlands

One minute of added time to be played.

The Three Lions have struggled to get out of first gear in the first 40 minutes, but they take the lead with a wonderfully worked passing move that would not have looked out of place on a five-a-side pitch.

Stones starts the attack and Sturridge then dummies for Lallana, who executes a nice turn before picking out the run of Walker. The Tottenham right-back would have been within his rights to shoot but instead he maintains his composure and knocks an easy ball inside for Vardy to blast home from close range.

Goal: England 1-0 Netherlands (Jamie Vardy)

Promes has tried to shake off that knee complaint, but he does not look comfortable and is replaced by PSV's Luciano Narsingh ten minutes before the break.

The Netherlands are then almost made to pay for their slow-moving reaction to a quick Sturridge free-kick but Barkley shoots just wide of Zoet's left-hand post.

England are beginning to improve now. Bruma blocks Sturridge's shot after the Liverpool striker was set up by Lallana and Rose, before the otherwise anonymous Barkley shows his skill by winning a corner off Blind.

The Everton playmaker then tries to connect with an acrobatic effort before Stones' low drive is hacked clear by Janssen.

Strong defending from Smalling to win back possession for England. Lallana, Rose and Vardy then combine swiftly before the Leicester striker blazes a shot high over the top.

England fall asleep in defence once again. Wijnaldum is almost the beneficiary as he curls a useful right-footed shot past Stones that is beaten away by a low save from Forster.

Very little tempo from either side so far, with England seeming particularly lacklustre. It's all a bit after the Lord Mayor's show, as many will have predicted after the highs of Berlin and with so many changes.

Rose breaks down the England left and collects an inviting pass from Lallana. Under pressure from Wijnaldum, he skews his cross horribly and it veers well wide.

Concern for Promes as he goes down clutching his right knee after falling awkwardly during a challenge with Rose. The physio is called on to administer some treatment.

The Dutch pour forward again, with Promes running hard at Rose before teeing up Janssen to fire straight at Forster.

England are looking a little sluggish early on.

IBTimes UK sport editor Nick Howson at Wembley:

The knee jerkers will be tucking delightfully into this England performance which has lacked the flair and invention which for long periods defined the win in Berlin. The encouragement for Leicester duo Jamie Vardy and Danny Drinkwater has been passionate from a sold out Wembley, but bar an exceptionally observed minute's applause to remember Johan Cruyff, there has been little to cheer about.

As the game hits the 14th minute, Cruyff's image appears on the scoreboard and the crowd burst into applause and a standing ovation. Wembley's arch is lit up in bright orange colours to remember one of football's true greats.

Almost a real opportunity for the visitors as Memphis peels away from Milner to collect a Willems throw-in before lashing his shot over the crossbar.

An early moment of controversy as Veltman beats Rose before being clearly taken out in the area by the Tottenham left-back. The referee points for a goal kick but that looked like a stonewall penalty at first glance.

At the other end, Bruma reacts well to thwart the run of Vardy after a searching pass from Walker.

One or two early nerves as Vardy nips in to win possession and a corner that is cleared. Forster then almost lands England in trouble with a poor clearance but a Dutch free-kick comes to nothing.

England look to be deploying that 4-4-2 diamond, as we mentioned earlier. Drinkwater is holding with Barkley pushed up behind Sturridge and the lively Vardy. Lallana and Milner are on either side.

Spanish referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz gets proceedings underway. England are sporting their divisive new home strip, bizarrely complete with red socks. The Netherlands are in all blue.

The national anthems have been played and all inside Wembley will now observe a minute's silence to remember the victims of last week's terrorist attacks in the Belgian capital.

England vs Netherlands is far from the only international fixture taking place tonight. There are several other friendlies happening across Europe, with the Republic of Ireland hosting Slovakia and Scotland welcoming Denmark to Hampden Park.

Germany face Italy and France are back at the Stade de France for the first time since November's terrorist attacks in Paris. They play Romania. Belgium, meanwhile, travel to Portugal in a game that was later switched from the King Baudouin Stadium to Leiria after the horrendous events in Brussels last week.

Last night, Wales were beaten 1-0 by Ukraine in Kiev courtesy of Andriy Yarmolenko's first-half goal. QPR striker Conor Washington opened his international account in Northern Ireland's narrow win over Slovenia.

The Netherlands' recent form has certainly been nothing to behold, although it is important to note that they are unbeaten against England in their last six matches since Alan Shearer and Teddy Sheringham both notched a brace to send Terry Venables' hosts through to the quarter-finals of Euro 96. Patrick Kluivert was the only Dutch player on the scoresheet in a heavy 4-1 loss at the old Wembley.

The most recent meeting between the two teams came in a friendly back in February 2012. Stuart Pearce took caretaker charge of the Three Lions in their first match after the resignation of Fabio Capello and late efforts from Cahill and Ashley Young looked to have cancelled out goals from Huntelaar and Robben only for the latter to produce a late winner.

IBTimes UK sports editor Nick Howson at Wembley:

So what can Roy Hodgson expect to learn tonight? Well, first off this is not a Netherlands team for the ages and one in complete and total transition. The name may scream Johan Cruyff and Marco van Basten, but tonight reads it Joel Veltman and Vincent Janssen. Any positives must be framed in context.

"The game therefore represents the chance for England to play in a manner which can be the blueprint for their Euro 2016 campaign, without too much fear of being outplayed by a major European heavyweight; not to mention a team that won't be in France in the summer.

"You can't help but feel it is a big night for the Merseyside pair John Stones and Adam Lallana, neither of whom have greatly impressed this season or in an England shirt. Daniel Sturridge is next on that list, with Roy Hodgson still to be convinced the Liverpool is anything other than an injury liability.

Six changes from the visitors, who hand Zoet his third senior cap in place of Cillessen. Blind is fit to start and he retains his place in defence alongside Jeffrey Bruma, Jetro Willems and Joël Veltman.

With the Netherlands back in a 4-3-3 system, Afellay and Newcastle's Georginio Wijnaldum come into midfield with Ajax's 19-year-old starlet Riechedly Bazoer. Quincy Promes is joined in attack by Manchester United forward Memphis Depay and Vincent Janssen.

Southampton pair Virgil van Dijk and Jordy Clasie both drop to the bench, as does De Jong. Sunderland left-back Patrick van Aanholt is the other Premier League player involved, in addition to fellow substitute Vorm.

The Netherlands' official teamsheet is finally in...

The Netherlands beat Wales 3-2 in a friendly back in November 2015, but that scoreline was reversed against France at the Amsterdam Arena on Friday.

Blind's side fell behind following early goals from Antoine Griezmann and Olivier Giroud, but hit back through Luuk de Jong and Stoke's Ibrahim Afellay before conceding a late winner to Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Blaise Matuidi.

The match was stopped in the 14th minute as fans and players alike paid their respects to the iconic Johan Cruyff, who died last week following a battle with lung cancer. That touching tribute to one of football's most influential and passionate innovators will be repeated at Wembley this evening.

Plenty of discussion across social media as to whether England, who switched between the two systems so successfully on Saturday, are starting in a 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 diamond formation tonight.

You get the feeling that it is likely the latter, with Drinkwater at the base and Barkley playing further forward with Milner and Lallana on either side. Sturridge and Vardy together up front.

The original configuration would surely see Drinkwater and Milner holding, with Barkley still occupying that no 10 role behind Sturridge and flanked by Lallana/Vardy.

IBTimes UK sports editor Nick Howson at Wembley:

Eight more players are given the opportunity to stake their claim for inclusion in Roy Hodgson's Euro 2016 squad. Danny Drinkwater faces a 90-minute audition to prove he can be the tough-tackling deputy to Eric Dier in midfield, where he makes his international debut from.

"John Stones has much to prove alongside Chris Smalling, a partnership which many perceive to be the future of the centre of England's defence, while further forward there are a plethora of exciting options. It is yet to be seen which of Jamie Vardy and Daniel Sturridge will start centrally, but with Ross Barkley in behind there is plenty of reason to feel the hosts can pick up from where they left off against Germany.

No confirmation of the Dutch XI just yet, although we know that Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder are both sidelined. First-choice goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen will also miss out having suffered a broken nose following an accidental collision with Klaas-Jan Huntelaar during a training session in Alkmaar on Sunday. Ajax teammate Davy Klaassen has a knee injury.

Manchester United's Daley Blind complained of stiffness in his hamstring earlier this week, although is expected to feature. Chelsea's Marco van Ginkel, currently on loan at PSV Eindhoven, and Spurs stopper Michel Vorm were both drafted into the squad yesterday.

The latter faces competition from Feyenoord's Kenneth Vermeer and Jeroen Zoet of PSV in the battle to replace Cillessen. All-time leading scorer Robin van Persie has been overlooked again as Blind looks towards the future.

Hodgson makes eight changes to the side that beat Germany. Drinkwater does indeed make his debut alongside temporary captain Milner, while Southampton's Fraser Forster replaces Butland and Stones comes into the back four along with Tottenham right-back Kyle Walker.

Ross Barkley replaces the in-form Dele Alli, while Vardy partners Sturridge up front. Lallana will keep his place in the absence of Walcott, who is listed among England's substitutes. Rose and Smalling are also retained.

More on their injury woes in a second, but here is how England will line up this evening....

It is a testament to the utterly disastrous nature of the Netherlands' qualifying campaign that they failed to even reach the play-offs for a Euro 2016 tournament that has been expanded from 16 to 24 teams.

The Oranje, who reached the semi-finals of the 2014 World Cup under Louis van Gaal, won just four of their 10 matches and eventually finished fourth in Group A behind Iceland, the Czech Republic and Turkey. Guus Hiddink resigned after 10 months in charge in June 2015 and was replaced by assistant Danny Blind.

Hodgson had previously hinted at widespread changes between these two friendlies, although appeared coy on just how many he would make at a pre-match press conference yesterday. We know for definite that James Milner will take over from Gary Cahill as captain with regular skipper Wayne Rooney still sidelined due to knee ligament damage, while injury-plagued striker Daniel Sturridge will also make his first international appearance since a post-World Cup friendly victory over Norway in September 2014.

Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwater is also expected to make his England bow, while John Stones is likely to partner Chris Smalling in the heart of defence and Danny Rose will surely keep his place at left-back with Ryan Bertrand having withdrawn from the squad.

Manchester City duo Joe Hart and Raheem Sterling are both out, of course, while Jack Butland is expected to miss three months as a result of a fractured ankle suffered during the first half in Berlin. It has also been suggested that Theo Walcott, who was set to start tonight in order to state his case for Euro 2016 after a difficult period with Arsenal, is doubtful due to a dead leg. Adam Lallana is expected to be retained instead.

Just three days removed from one of their most impressive and encouraging performances in modern memory, England return to action tonight with a friendly against the Netherlands at Wembley.

Roy Hodgson's side trailed reigning world champions Germany 2-0 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin on Saturday evening, but showed tremendous character and resolve to battle back and deservedly overturn such a daunting deficit with a quite brilliant second-half showing.

Harry Kane and substitute Jamie Vardy both continued their fine form with stunning goals, while the victory was secured by a thumping header from Eric Dier in stoppage time.

Reaction to such a surprising win has been inevitably exuberant, although this contest is likely to be an entirely different affair as the manager seeks to assess his full squad with the Euro 2016 opener against Russia in Marseille on 11 June quickly approaching.
