Arjen Robben
Arjen Robben played the last match with his national team in the Russia 2018 qualifiers. He had an emotional moment during the national anthem of the Netherlands. The Dutch team needed to win 7-0 against Sweden to stay in the race.
Holland couldn't go beyond a 2-0 victory against Sweden, and therefore, they were eliminated from the playoffs. Arjen Robben scored a double, but it wasn't enough to achieve the feat. Sweden had a goal difference of +19 and Holland had +7. The Orange team needed to score 7 goals to increase their goal difference to +14 and finish third in Group A with +12.

The playoffs seem to be the last chance for them to qualify for Russia 2018. This situation is also experienced by Lionel Messi, who relies on a victory in Ecuador to qualify with Argentina. The same goes for Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal), Gareth Bale (Wales), Gianluigi Buffon (Italy), and Arjen Robben (Netherlands) in Europe.
