AMSTERDAM (SW) - Two goals from Arsenal's Robin van Persie and one from Liverpool's Dirk Kuyt earned the Netherlands a 3-1 victory over Sweden.
Robin van Persie put the Dutch ahead on 32 minutes and added another just after the break to give his side a comfortable 2-0 lead.
Kim Källström soon ended those celebrations by netting for 2-1 a minute after Van Persie's second goal.
The decider came in added time, when Dirk Kuyt restored the original two-goal gap for a 3-1 victory, their fourth consecutive win.
