Virgil van Dijk admits being thumped by France is a "big hit" as the Liverpool defender was part of a defence that conceded four in Paris.
The Netherlands were cut apart by their opponents as they began their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign in the worst possible fashion a humiliating 4-0 defeat. The World Cup runners-up put that disappointment behind them to score twice in the first seven minutes, with Van Dijk claiming the game was "already done" by that point.
He played in a backline that also featured Manchester City's Nathan Ake and former Manchester United target Jurrien Timber, but they were powerless to stop Kylian Mbappe and co. Van Dijk has faced criticism this year for some of his performances and he gave a brutal assessment of his own team's efforts.
