Round-upInternationals: Cody Gakpo scores late equaliser in reunion with Jürgen Klopp
Cody Gakpo scored a stoppage-time equaliser to ensure three Liverpool players’ reunion with Jürgen Klopp ended with honours even.
The forward netted a fine volley in the 91st minute of Thursday’s UEFA Nations League meeting between the Netherlands and Germany to earn Oranje a 1-1 draw.
Gakpo, Ryan Gravenberch and Virgil van Dijk all started and finished the match, which was former Reds boss Klopp’s first as head coach of Germany.
Van Dijk saw a headed goal disallowed for offside early on in Amsterdam, where Jeremie Frimpong was an unused substitute for the hosts.
Florian Wirtz was not involved, with the playmaker joining up for Germany’s final two fixtures of the current international break.
Like Gakpo, Kostas Tsimikas also made a telling late contribution in the other game in League A, Group 2 in the Nations League.
The left-back assisted a 95th-minute winner for Greece as they came from behind to beat Serbia 2-1 in Belgrade.
Elsewhere, Lewis Koumas started Wales’ 1-0 away defeat by Portugal in the Nations League and Ronald Araujo played just shy of 70 minutes of Uruguay’s 3-1 loss to Japan in a friendly.
Finally, Academy midfielder Erik Farkas featured as England U18s won 3-2 against Colombia.
