The side coached by Van Marwijk defeated Mexico 2-1 with two goals of the Arsenal strike Robbie Van Persie. Mexico tied the match through Chicharito Hernandez.
The result did not reflect the match; in fact if The Netherlands had been more precise the difference could have been bigger. The Mexican coach Javier Aguirre left the match with more problems than solutions.
The main concern was on defense: Moreno, Magallon, Torres Nilo and Aguilar did not offer any guarantees.
Mexico lost the second game in a row in one week, the first one 3-1 against England. They will face Gambia on Sunday and Italy on June 3rd.
