Cruyff tribute set for England-Netherlands friendly

The FA confirmed the plans in a statement, which also revealed a minute's silence would be observed prior to kick-off in memory of those who lost their lives in the recent terrorist attacks in Brussels.

Wembley Stadium will host the England v Netherlands friendly on Tuesday night.

England and Netherlands will pay tribute to the late Johan Cruyff during their friendly at Wembley on Tuesday.

Dutch legend Cruyff died on Thursday following a battle with lung cancer and Netherlands paused for 60 seconds of applause during the 14th minute of their clash with France on Friday – a nod to to Cruyff's iconic shirt number.
