The Dutch train with a full selection, Dumfries and Depay show fitness

NOS Football•today, 6:21 pm

The Dutch national team has trained with a full selection in Doha. All 26 players appeared on the field and also participated in the match form. Memphis Depay and Denzel Dumfries were also present and showed their fitness.

Depay and Dumfries were on the winning team of the three teams playing an eight-a-side mini-tournament. Both were also accurate. Dumfries scored with the left after a one-two with Depay and on a pass from keeper Remko Pasveer, Depay also found the net with a clean shot.

The 28-year-old Depay, top scorer of the current Orange, has recovered from the hamstring injury that has kept him aside since September 22. Van Gaal thinks it is wise not to let his first striker start against Senegal on Monday.

Depay himself is hopeful that he can start the first group match of the Orange at the World Cup. Dumfries was injured last Sunday during the last competition match of his Italian club Internazionale. The right back says he no longer suffers from his right knee.

The Dutch team trained behind closed doors on Thursday morning. The team closes the evening training with a meeting with twenty migrant workers, who regularly cheered loudly during training, especially for their favorites Depay and Virgil van Dijk.
