Four years after the national embarrassment of missing the World Cup, the Netherlands booked a ticket to return to the world's biggest stage.
The Oranje didn't make it easy for themselves though, waiting until the final stages of the final game of qualifying to win their group and earn a spot in Qatar next fall. Tottenham winger Steven Bergwijn scored the opening goal in the 84th minute while Memphis Depay ensured victory in the 91st.
With his 17th goal in the last 15 international games, Depay finishes tied for the most goals in qualifying with England's Harry Kane with 12.
