Netherlands national football team results
  Win    Draw    Loss
The unofficial Dutch national team in their first match against Felixstowe in 1894.
Mulier as captain of the unofficial Dutch national team in a match against Maidstone in 1895.

This is a list of the Netherlands national football team's results from 1894 to the present day that, for various reasons, are not accorded the status of official internationals and are not being recognized by FIFA.[1] Player appearances and goals in these matches are also not counted to their totals.

The national team played twelve matches until the first official international match of the Netherlands took place in 1905. They played their first match against the English side Felixstowe FC on 6 February 1894.[2] Their first unofficial victory came against the English side Maidstone FC, which was defeated 4–3, thanks to two goals from Pim Mulier.[3] The biggest victory came on 18 November 1895 when Saxmundham FC, the losing finalists in the Suffolk Senior Cup the season before, was sent home after a 9–2 loss, thanks in part to a 5-goal haul from Rein Boomsma.[4]

1900s and Coupe Vanden Abeele

[edit]

In the early 1900s, the Netherlands played four unofficial matches against Belgium as they contested for the Coupe Vanden Abeele.[5] The Dutch were represented by sides selected and organized by Cees van Hasselt, but since the games were not being sanctioned by the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB), only players from the second division were available to Van Hasselt, so Belgium naturally won those games.[5][6][7]

[edit]

Outside the official biannual Low Countries derbies, Belgium faced the Netherlands for diverse reasons in the 1930s; the 1930 match served to inaugurate the new national stadium, the two matches in 1932 served as a fundraiser for FIFA and charity, and the 1939 match was at the occasion of the Royal Dutch Football Association's 50th anniversary.[9]
