Wesley Sneijder will play for Netherlands in World Cup qualifier against Estonia and Andorra over the next two weeks following the injury that struck teammate Georginio Wijnaldum.

Sneijder, former Rea Madrid and Inter Milan star, was also not included in van Gaal’s squad against Portugal in last month’s friendly. Therefore, Wijnaldum’s injury paved the way for Sneijder’s comeback.

Netherlands scores perfect result in World Cup qualifying group,winning all six matches played. Louis van Gaal eyes a pair of away victory to confirm their place in Brazil next year.
