Spain failed to erase the 2014 World Cup humiliating memories by Netherlands as they were outclassed 2-0 by the latter in Amsterdam in a friendly tie on Tuesday night.

Stefan de Vrij put Netherlands ahead in the 13th minute before midfielder Davy Klaassen doubled the lead three minutes later.

Spain, who were defending the title, were thrashed 5-1 by Netherlands in the World Cup group stages last year.

On the other hand, Netherlands have been placed third in Group A of the 2016 Euro Cup qualifiers, while Spain are second in Group C.
