Euro 2022 Group C - Netherlands vs Portugal live: latest score as van de Donk's wonder goal restores Dutch lead

Sweden have taken control of Group C with a 2-1 win over Switzerland, so there can be no room for slip-ups for either side this evening.

The Netherlands, as defending champions, start the match as favourites but without their key player Miedema, it's going to be a tricky assignment for Parson's side.

Portugal come into the game five matches unbeaten and may sense a big opportunity to cause an upset.

Portugal boss Francisco Neto acknowledges tonight will be a tough game for his team, the second-lowest ranked side in the competition.

He said: "I think the level will go up and our team needs to follow it. We want to be competitive like we were in the second half of the game [against Switzerland]. It will be very hard for us. In the last match we made some mistakes that we cannot repeat as the level will be very high."

Netherlands boss Mark Parsons has been speaking to UEFA.com ahead of tonight's game.

He said: “We’ve had some big blows. We’re making good decisions so we can be prepared, look forward, and make sure that we’re in the best position we can be against an organised Portugal team.

"When this group get hit by a blow, they have one reaction and that’s to dig deep and give everything. We saw that against Sweden. We plan to build on that for tomorrow evening.”

It wasn't an ideal result but Portugal boss Franciso Neto sticks with the side that drew 2-2 with Switzerland at the weekend. Diana Gomes and Jessica Silva were on the scoresheet as the Portuguese came from two goals down to earn a point.

As mentioned, Netherlands are missing a host of players but that means opportunities for others, so Van Domselaar starts in goal and Beerensteyn, Olislagers and Egurrola also feature from the off.

Four changes in total from the team that drew 1-1 with Sweden on Saturday.
