Eleven Gunners are heading to the World Cup and Arsenal.com will be tracking their progress every step of the way in our brand new World Cup section.
Between now and the start of the tournament on June 11 we will continue to bring you details of international friendlies involving Arsenal players. The Dutch conceded in the sixth minute when Balazs Dzsudzsak found the net for Hungary. The turnaround got underway in the 22nd minute when Van Persie curled a shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the area.
It was the fourth time he had scored for his country in their last three fixtures and it was another top-class finish from the 26-year-old.
Netherlands took the lead through Wesley Sneijder 11 minutes into the second half before Arjen Robben extended their advantage.
Three goals in eight minutes completed the rout at the Amsterdam ArenA. Mark van Bommel netted the first before Eljero Elia and Robben inflicted further torment on the visitors.
In three pre-World Cup international friendlies The Oranje have scored 12 goals. Their World Cup campaign gets underway on Monday, June 14 when they take on Denmark.
