-The
Dutch were missing Ernie Brandts, Erwin Koeman, Ruud Gullit, René van der Gijp,
Michel Valke, Ronald Spelbos and Peter Houtman.
-The
Hungarians had already qualified for the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, the previous
month after defeating Austria at Vienna (April 17, 1985, World Cup Qualifier, Austria
0-Hungary 3).
Hungary
had used the exact starting lineup as this match with Holland. This lineup was
essentially their strongest squad.
They
had won all five of their qualifiers. For them this was an inconsequential
match. The Dutch and Austria were battling it out for the second place that
would have earned a playoff spot.
This
is the last time to date that Hungary has qualified for the World Cup.

Lokhoff. After Fifteen minutes into the second half, Ronald Koeman also came on

winning goal. Ronald Koeman from the right side middle of the field sent in a
long cross to de Wit on the left. De wit took the ball near the edge of the box
and then suddenly dribbled through towards the goal and chipped Disztl.
-
Ferenc Meszaros replaced Esterhazy just after Holland’s goal.

outstanding.
