Round-upInternationals: Cody Gakpo assists as six Reds feature on Saturday Published 21 hours ago By Joe Urquhart Cody Gakpo recorded an assist for the Netherlands on Saturday evening as six Liverpool players were involved in international action. Gakpo played a key role in his nation’s 2-0 victory over Finland in their Group G opener of World Cup qualifying. His inch-perfect cross into the penalty area for Denzel Dumfries added to Memphis Depay’s earlier opener and helped earn three points in Helsinki. Alongside the Reds forward – who featured for 85 minutes of the fixture – were teammates Jeremie Frimpong, Ryan Gravenberch and Virgil van Dijk, who each completed the full game. Elsewhere, Curtis Jones was selected to start for England as they overcame Andorra 1-0 in a Group K meeting, with the midfielder featuring for 80 minutes ahead of his substitution. In friendly action, meanwhile, Conor Bradley and Northern Ireland played out a 2-1 away defeat by Denmark and Kostas Tsimikas was an unused substitute for Greece in their 4-1 home victory over Slovakia.
