Netherlands 2 – 3 Mexico [Friendly] Highlights

Carlos Vela ended his three-year international absence in style by scoring twice as Mexico got some revenge on Netherlands for their World Cup elimination with a 3-2 victory on Wednesday.

Vela was making his first appearance for the national side for three and a half years at the Amsterdam ArenA after refusing several call-ups, with his unwillingness to play for his country seeing him miss the 2014 World Cup.

However, the Real Sociedad striker accepted the latest olive branch from Herrera and wasted no time in illustrating his worth with a well-taken double.

Vela’s two goals were separated by a powerful volley from Wesley Sneijder on a night that saw the Galatasaray star become the third-most capped Netherlands player with 110 international appearances.

But Javier Hernandez added a third to render that moment of magic irrelevant in spite of Daley Blind’s deflected 74th-minute strike.

Mexico stood firm to gain a measure of revenge for their 2-1 loss to Netherlands in the last 16 of the World Cup and place further pressure on Dutch head coach Guus Hiddink, who revealed that he would resign if his side lose to Latvia in Euro 2016 qualifying on Sunday.
