The Netherlands crushed South Korea 5-0 in a friendly international, with Vivianne Miedema netting four goals in the first half.

Her four-goal haul began after nine minutes assisted by Marisa Olislagers and was completed half an hour later.

Victoria Pelova and Lynn Wilms also contributed assists, while Ella Peddemors rounded off the rout before the break.

Portugal were beaten 5-0 by Brazil, who took the lead just two minutes in through Gabi Zanotti. Ludmila and Dudinha extended the score to 3-0 by halftime, with Isabella and a Bia Zaneratto penalty later further adding to the advantage.
