None more so than Jason McAteer, who, after the 58th-minute dismissal of Gary Kelly for a second bookable offence, produced the game's only goal nine minutes later.
Unwanted at his club Blackburn Rovers where he has not started a game for five months, McAteer was picked out by substitute Steve Finnan, after some adroit footwork by the Fulham man, and he swept home the ball majestically.
Certainly, as the half wore on, the Dutch were made aware that the pre-match warning from their coach Louis van Gaal of the danger posed by the Irish, was not mere politeness.
