Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal says RKC Waalwijk goalkeeper Jeroen Zoet has the opportunity to become an international regular.

Zoet was added to the senior squad as a replacement for the injured Tim Krul. The 21-year-old makes the step up with rave reviews.
"Zoet is a logical replacement. Cor Pot [Netherlands Under-21 coach] is very pleased with him," said Van Gaal.
"Now he has the chance to become our third-choice goalkeeper."
Meanwhile, Van Gaal, in his second spell as Netherlands boss, expects to come across a defensive-minded Hungary in tonight's World Cup qualifier. The Dutch are searching for back-to-back wins following their home triumph over Turkey last Friday.
"Hungary do not play as offensively as Turkey. They employ two systems, of which the most offensive is 4-4-1-1. Enough said," added the experienced coach.
