Match Report
Ruud van Nistelrooy netted a late goal as Holland played out a 1-1 draw with Germany in their Euro 2004 Group D opener.

Torsten Frings had put Germany in front on the half-hour with a free-kick but a trademark poacher's goal from van Nistelrooy on 81 ensured neither side would join the Czech Republic at the top of the group.

After a bright opening few minutes for the Dutch, Germany were much the better side and it was no surprise to see them go in front when Frings' free-kick from out on the left evaded everyone in the area and curled in.

Rafael van der Vaart went close to levelling in the closing stages of the half when he sent a shot just wide while Marc Overmars forced a great save out of Oliver Kahn after the break.

But time looked to be running out until Andy van der Meyde crossed from the right and van Nistelrooy converted.
