Netherlands forward Wout Weghorst loves to make a big impression off the bench and he did it again late in a 2-1 win over Poland at the European Championship. The striker struck Sunday with a low left-foot shot in the 83rd minute with his first touch. He had replaced Memphis Depay who wasted several shooting chances.

Cody Gakpo of the Netherlands scores his side’s first goal during a Group D match between Poland and the Netherlands at the Euro 2024 soccer tournament in Hamburg, Germany, Sunday, June 16, 2024.
This time, Weghorst’s goal was worth a win that puts some pressure on Group D favorite France, which already beat the Dutch twice in qualifying last year and plays Austria on Monday. Cody Gakpo leveled in the 29th with a shot that was deflected and deceived goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny. It was fair reward for a vibrant first half for the Dutch.
