"I want to focus on my club [career] now," confirmed Robben post-game. "It's a good time to pass the torch to the next generation.

"It was special and it was difficult. But it was not about me. But if you know in advance that it may be the last one, then that's very special," said Robben.

"I wanted to show you what I can do. That has been done, I was well in the game. That's how I am, as I've always tried to show with the Dutch team.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time. I'm very proud and honoured at my six final tournaments. The most beautiful moments to me are the 2010 and 2014 World Championships, in which we were really a close team and a close group.

"But there are many beautiful moments, fourteen years is a long time. "
