NetherlandsNetherlands2PeruPeru1
Sat in a mocked up living room in the middle of the Johan Cruyff Arena pitch with your family, watching goodwill messages from your peers - it is an unusual way to sign off an international career.
Wesley Sneijder was given this very farewell after ending his 15-year Netherlands international career with a victory over Peru.
The midfielder played 62 minutes of the 2-1 win, but after the game was seated on a sofa with his wife and two children to watch pre-recorded messages from former team-mates and managers.
The crowd in the stadium also held aloft banners celebrating the 34-year-old, who began his international career in April 2003 and ends it with a national record 134 caps, in which he scored 31 goals.
Lyon forward Memphis Depay, formerly of Manchester United, scored both goals as the Dutch came from behind to win, his second coming seven minutes from time.
Pedro Aquino had put the South Americans in front in the 13th minute.
