For anyone interested there appears to have been a change of heart. Both these games will now be played inside the main stadium facility. According to Algarve Football Tours on Facebook.  |

England 3-2 Netherlands. Good, competitive game this evening. Plenty of aggression and skill throughout which England just about deserved to win. 13' Penalty to Neth, a little weak by Bouhoudane [PSV] and pushed away by the very tall GK, Awesu [West Ham]. Tears for the Dutch. 19' 1-0 England. Low cross turned into his own goal by Nijstad [Capt FC Twente]. 26' 1-1. I think, Van Ommeren [Utrecht]. HT 46' 1-2 Netherlands. I think, Zekri [AZ]. Awesu blotted his night, letting a powderpuff shot in at his near post, rather comically banging his head on said post. 49' 2-2. Nwosu [West Ham] expertly smacking home a cut back. 67' 3-2 England. Page [Leicester] who capitalised on a shot pushed back out by the keeper Dobben [Zwolle]. Goalie not at the races with that one. Rest of the game petered out somewhat, I counted eight subs by England, not quite so many by the Netherlands. England had several lads that caught the eye, in particular Gray of Leeds, Dowman of Arsenal and Howell of Brighton. Ngumoha of Liverpool fizzed, out on the wing, tho mostly he overdid his crazy feet routine. Second game, on Sunday [11am] probably worth a visit.

England 4-0 Netherlands. Clean sweep for the England lads this lunchtime. Three goals in the first halfhour just about sorted it, with a very late fourth completing the job. The Netherlands team were quite poor throughout and England could have had more from their overwhelming ball possession. As expected, all the squad who didnt get on last Thursday seemed to be involved in this game.
