Frank Lampard opened the scoring for the visitors from the spot in the fourth minute.

Turkey pushed hard for an equaliser, but couldn’t find a breakthrough and Dutch youngster Luciano Narsingh scored three minutes into stoppage-time to confirm the victory for Louis Van Gaal’s side. Holland takes a trip to Hungary on Tuesday for their next qualifier.
