The Liverpool forward struck from the penalty spot in first-half stoppage time to put a Dutch side captained by Virgil van Dijk and also including Ryan Gravenberch two goals to the good against their opponents, who were skippered by Dominik Szoboszlai.
After the interval in Amsterdam, the home team added two more goals, with Gakpo and Gravenberch being substituted around ten minutes before the end of the game. Szoboszlai and Van Dijk ended the match.
The Oranje defence was too open in the early stages and Van Dijk was part of that but when the Netherlands got control he strolled through the game.
He too made over 118 passes in the game and was doing everything to keep the ball in their control.
Ryan Gravenberch almost flawless with the ball and made a couple of very strong and impressive runs. Came close to scoring with a shot over the bar. Showed he can be a perfect partner for De Jong
Cody Gakpo always a threat for Oranje with his runs and crosses. He also took his penalty well. Had some shots blocked.
However, his best contribution was the number of chances he created today, but he was unlucky as they never turned into goals.
Meanwhile, Dominik Szoboszlai is pick of the Hungary outfielders today as he kept trying in very area. However, there was no help and he could not get his side back in the game.
