Over and out

Bert Van Marwijk last night resigned as head coach of the Netherlands after failing to secure even a point from the group stages of the European Championships, the Dutch finishing bottom of Group B.

The Dutchman had been contracted until 2016 but a statement from the KNVB read: "On the initiative of Bert van Marwijk, the KNVB and Bert van Marwijk decided on Wednesday to end the coach's contract with immediate effect."
