We’re into the final stretch of international matches and there has been plenty to keep us entertained.
Here’s what went down …
Scorers: Griezmann 25′, 53′
France broke the deadlock through Antoine Griezmann who picked up an intelligent pass from Karim Benzema before curling into the corner.
Griezmann doubled Les Bleus’ lead after the break, after combining well with Léo Dubois before finishing well at the near post.
Scorers: Klaassen 1′, Memphis 16′, 38′ (pen), 54′, Til 80′, Malen 90′
The Netherlands were ahead after just 54 seconds when Memphis Depay and Davy Klaassen combined brilliantly before the latter finished past Uğurcan Çakir.
Klaassen then returned the favour for Memphis who volleyed home brilliantly to double their lead, before making it three after executing a cheeky panenka penalty.
The Barcelona forward completed his hat-trick after heading home Steven Berghuis’ cutback, with substitutes Guus Til and Donyell Malen completing the rout late on.
Cengiz Ünder netted a consolation for the visitors in injury time.
Scorers: Dykes (pen) 30′
Scotland took the lead when Lyndon Dykes converted from 12 yards after Che Adams was clumsily hauled down by Martin Hinteregger.
Austria pushed for an equaliser – Christoph Baumgartner had a late effort ruled out for offside – but the visitors held on for three big points.
Scorers: Milenković (og) 87′; Milinković-Savić 20′
Serbia silenced the Aviva stadium when Sergej Milinković-Savić powered an excellent header past young goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu.
And after a host of missed opportunities, Ireland secured a dramatic late equaliser when Milinković-Savić blasted off Nikola Milenković into his own net.
Scorers: Poulsen 28′, Kjær 31′, Skov Olsen 41′, Delaney 58′, Cornelius 90+1′
Denmark flew out of the blocks and opened the scoring through Yussuf Poulsen, before Simon Kjær rose highest to head home their second.
Andreas Skov Olsen made it three before half-time with a rasping close range volley, with Thomas Delaney and Andreas Cornelius adding two more late on.
