With the away side leading by three goals after 45 minutes, the TV cameras panned out so the nation could look at the ground staff’s efforts in all its glory.

And now you can witness the rude image carved out on the pitch at the Polman Stadion in Almelo that has set the Netherlands talking, in this short clip of the match.
