NETHERLANDS RATINGS: Andries Noppert 6: A few shots hit straight at him and a late strike saved at his near post was Dutch keeper’s biggest exertions, on what was a quiet night between the sticks. AP
Jurrien Timber 7: Comfortable night for Ajax right-back who was solid defensively and looked to push forward whenever possible. Getty
Virgil van Dijk 8: Totally dominant at the back. Whenever Qatar did manage to get the ball into the box, Van was on hand to intercept or clear with unerring regularity. Also happy to berate teammates if they failed to match his high standards. AFP
Nathan Ake 7: Not troubled by a Qatari attack strangely reluctant to attack the ball in the Dutch penalty area. Booked for leading with his elbow in an aerial challenge in second half. Getty
Denzel Dumfries 7: Not massively hard day at office defensively and even when Qatar actually found a bit of joy down the Dutch flanks, there was no one in the middle to take advantage. His deflected cross almost caught out Barsham at his near post in 74th minute. AP
Marten de Roon 7: Started in midfield in place of Teun Koopmeiners and helped Dutch keep control of centre of park for majority of match. AFP
Frenkie de Jong 7: Barcelona midfielder made it 2-0 when he stabbed home from a couple of metres out after keeper had saved Depay's shot. AFP
Daley Blind 8: Lively start saw Ajax midfielder denied early goal after good save from Barsham and had another strike blocked by a teammate. A key player in the Dutch victory. AP
Davy Klaassen 7: Scored in the group opener against Senegal, but managed to deny teammate Blind a goal when he unwittingly got in the way of his shot in opening 15 minutes here. Buzzed around constantly, winning back possession regularly and linked up well with teammates. Getty
Cody Gakpo 8: Another game, another goal for one of the stars of the World Cup so far, when he drilled home a fine low finish to score for third game in a row and put the Dutch in front. AFP
Memphis Depay 7: Deemed fit enough to start by Louis van Gaal and had decent chance in opening 15 minutes but sent volley way over bar. Pulled another shot wide of target just before break while his strike just after break was well saved by keeper and led to De Jong’s goal. A much-need 65 minutes for the Barcalona attacker. AFP
SUBS: Steven Berghuis (On for Klaassen 66’) 7: Denied goal moments after coming on due to handball by Gakpo in build-up and curled brilliant shot against crossbar in injury-time. AP
Vincent Janssen (On for Depay 66’) 7: Set-up fellow substitute Berghuis to score before intervention of VAR for handball. Reuters

QATAR RATINGS: Meshaal Barsham 7: Good block in first five minutes from Blind. No chance with Gakpo’s latest fine finish at World Cup and produced brilliant stop from Depay only for De Jong to stab home the rebound. Beaten all ends up by Berghuis's strike that hit bar. Reuters
Ismail Mohamad 5: Had opportunity to level after half-hour mark but could only curl weak strike straight at Noppert. Made desperate sliding challenge on Gapko but couldn’t stop in-form attacker scoring. AP
Pedro Miguel 5: Left swinging his boot at fresh air as De Jong beat him to the ball to score just after half-time but also some important blocks and tackles. Reuters
Boualem Khoukhi 5: Tried to head clear just after break only for ball to land at feet of Depay and eventually lead to De Jong scoring. AP
Abdelkarim Hassan 6: Volleyed difficult chance from corner well over bar in 25th minute. Not afraid to surge out of defence with the ball but his distribution was often lacking or teammates were not on same wavelength. Getty
Homam Ahmed: Somehow escaped a first-half yellow card despite blatantly slapping the ball and found likes of Gakpo and Depay tough opponents. AP
Hassan Al Haydos 6: Qatari captain could not get on the ball often enough to make a difference. One nice run forward and ball out wide at start of second half but just didn’t happen anywhere near often enough. AFP
Assim Madibo 5: Skinned with ease by Gakpo ahead of the Dutchman opening the scoring and, like rest of teammates, failed to make much of in impression offensively. AFP
Abdulaziz Hatem 6: Drove the game’s first shot straight at goalkeeper from distance in what was probably the closest Qatar came to scoring. EPA
Almoez Ali 4: Often isolated up front but his hold-up play when the ball did end up in his direction was lacking and guilty of not gambling in box when crosses were being sent over. AP
Akram Afif 6: Drifted all around pitch trying, with little success, to make things happen for Qatar and sent over some decent crosses from dead balls which his teammates failed to take advantage of. Getty
SUBS: Ali Asad (On for Al Haydos 64’) 5: Couldn’t help side get a grip on midfield that the Dutch dominated throughout. Getty
Mohammed Muntari (On for Ali 64’) 5: Scored Qatar’s first ever World Cup goal against Senegal but couldn’t repeat trick here. AFP
Karim Boudiaf (On for Madibo 64’) 5: Little impact after coming on with Dutch in cruise control. Getty
