Christojaye proved to be a handful for the Holland defenders, and added to his tally in the 48th minute, before scoring a cracking left footed free kick to make it 4-0 (see video below).

There was some consolation for Holland, who were awarded a penalty in the 81st minute, which was converted by Roshane Jackson.
