G. Wijnaldum has scored a goal for Netherlands! Assist by M. Depay.
4-2!!! GAME OVER! Wijnaldum secures the points! Sule is dispossessed and the Dutch launch a quickfire counter with Depay brilliantly picking out the Liverpool midfielder, who finishes well first time past Neuer.
Depay showed great awareness to pick out Wijnaldum, who did the rest.
90'
There are going to be four minutes of stoppage time at the end of this game!
88'
The Germans begin to turn up the pressure and near enough everyone is back for the Dutch. Can the hosts equalise and extend their unbeaten run to seven matches?
86'
This could turn out to be a huge result for the Dutch in their quest to qualify for a first major tournament since the 2014 World Cup. They have four minutes plus stoppage time to hang on...
84'
J. Brandt enters the game and replaces M. Ginter.
A very attacking change from the Germans as Ginter is replaced by Julian Brandt for the final six minutes.
83'
If they can hang on, the Dutch will be right back in contention in Group C. They would close the gap on Germany to three points and still have a game in hand.
81'
N. Aké enters the game and replaces R. Babel.
Koeman's intentions are clear as he introduces Nathan Ake in place of Babel, who has been fantastic today.
79'
D. Malen has scored a goal for Netherlands! Assist by G. Wijnaldum.
MALEN'S ONLY SCORED!!! THE DUTCH LEAD 3-2! The dream debut for the 20-year-old! Depay feeds Wijnaldum, who very unselfishly squares the ball for Malen to volley home what could be the winner.
Wijnaldum showed fantastic awareness and skill to square the ball for Malen, who made no mistake this time.
78'
Good block! De Jong cleverly steps away from his marker before feeding Wijnaldum, whose goalbound strike is stopped in its tracks by Ginter.
Minute
Description
76'
What a chance that was for Malen to make an impact on the international stage. The PSV striker, who scored 11 times in the Eredivisie last season, certainly has plenty of wise words in his young head. He has worked under the likes of Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp in the youth ranks at Arsenal and Ajax respectively, while he has drawn comparisons with Alexis Sanchez.
73'
Penalty goal scored by T. Kroos for Germany!
NO PROBLEM FOR KROOS!!! 2-2! The midfielder steps up and calmly sends Cillessen the wrong way. It is honours even once again in Hamburg!
72'
F. de Jong gets yellow.
De Jong is shown a yellow card after taking his protests at the awarding of the penalty a little too far.
68'
What a turnaround in Hamburg! Ironically, it was in this stadium that the Netherlands overcame a 1-0 deficit to beat the Germans 2-1 in the 1988 European Championship semi-final. A certain Ronald Koeman scored for the Dutch that day.
66'
J. Tah is unfortunate, scores an own goal!
OWN GOAL!!! THE DUTCH LEAD! Neuer does brilliantly to deny Van Dijk's powerful header but, seconds later, is helpless as Tah turns Depay's cross into his own net.
65'
The visitors are certainly looking the more threatening as we enter the final 25 minutes. They have just forced a corner...
63'
The Dutch have got their tails up all of a sudden. Can they edge their noses in front and claim a first win in Germany for nearly 17 years?
61'
K. Havertz enters the game and replaces T. Werner.
İ. Gündoğan enters the game and replaces M. Reus.
Meanwhile, Reus is sacrificed in favour of İlkay Gündoğan.
The Germans respond with two changes of their own. First, Kai Havertz is on for Werner.
59'
F. de Jong has scored a goal for Netherlands! Assist by R. Babel.
EQUALISER!!! DE JONG DRAWS THE DUTCH LEVEL! The Barcelona midfielder drifts into the box and beats Schulz to Babel's cross, before calmly beating Neuer to score his first senior international goal.
It was a brilliant cross by the far touchline from Babel, who did remarkably well to pick out De Jong.
58'
D. Pröpper enters the game and replaces D. Dumfries.
D. Malen enters the game and replaces M. de Roon.
The other change sees Dumfries replaced by Davy Pröpper.
The Dutch make a double-change. The first sees Koeman hand a debut to PSV striker Donyell Malen, with De Roon making way.
57'
That was better from the Dutch. They will need to continue to get the likes of Depay and Babel on the ball to give them the best chance of getting back into this game.
55'
At the other end, Kimmich makes a very important intervention with his outstretched leg to prevent Depay's cross from reaching Wijnaldum, who was gearing up for the shot.
49'
M. de Roon gets yellow.
De Roon has his name taken for a rash challenge from behind on Kroos. As a result, he will miss the game against Estonia on Monday.
46'
The referee blows his whistle and the Dutch get us off and running once more!
45'
HALF-TIME: GERMANY 1-0 NETHERLANDS
44'
How crucial could that save prove to be? The Dutch would have had a mountain to climb had they gone 2-0 behind, but they remain very much in this game as we approach half-time.
39'
The Germans remain 1-0 to the good and, as things stand, will go top of Group C ahead of their showdown with current leaders Northern Ireland on Monday.
37'
Kimmich needs to tread carefully now and the Germans know what an inspirational player he can be for them. The Bayern Munich man registered 13 assists in the Bundesliga last season while, earlier this week, he was shortlisted for the FIFPRO World XI.
35'
J. Kimmich gets yellow.
M. Depay gets yellow.
Kimmich is shown the first yellow card of the game for that challenge.
Meanwhile, Depay also goes into the book for his part in proceedings.
34'
There is a scuffle between the players after the Dutch take exception to Kimmich's challenge on De Ligt. The referee has a little bit of sorting-out to do once everything calms down.
30'
The Dutch are providing a good aerial threat at set-pieces but just cannot quite turn it into an equaliser at the moment. De Ligt wins another header on this occasion, but Neuer collects.
26'
Germany launch a quickfire counter with Gnabry attempting an ambitious chip from range, but he does not quite execute it as well as he could have and Cillessen gathers.
24'
So much has already happened in the 20-year-old's career. Ajax's youngest-ever captain, he became the first defender to win the Golden Boy award last year and led the Dutch giants to a domestic double before his big-money move to Juventus.
22'
Chance. De Ligt climbs well to meet a Dutch corner, but is unable to direct his header towards goal.
21'
Cillessen is earning his 51st cap for the Netherlands today. The Valencia goalkeeper, who joined from Barcelona prior to this season, is one of the few surviving members of the Dutch side that reached the World Cup semi-finals in 2014.
19'
Schulz gets down the left flank and does well to get his cross in. However, Cillessen reads it well and gathers.
17'
Babel drifts into the area as he looks to connect with a dangerous ball into the German box, but the home defence are alert to the danger and able to clear.
15'
Germany look to press home their advantage at the other end and are awarded a free-kick 25 yards from goal. Kroos stands over the ball but cannot quite keep his effort down.
13'
That goal seems to have knocked the stuffing out of the Dutch. They look to respond straight away but Dumfries gets his cross all wrong and it goes aimlessly behind for a goal kick.
9'
S. Gnabry has scored a goal for Germany!
GERMANY LEAD!!! GNABRY PUTS THEM IN FRONT! It is against the run of play, but the Germans will not care in the slightest. Klostermann breaks the offside trap as Promes is caught napping and, although he shoots straight at Cillessen, Gnabry is quickly on the scene to fire home the rebound.
6'
At the other end, Kroos has the first shot of the game, although he drags his low 25-yard effort well wide of the target.
5'
The Dutch win the ball inside the German half and look to break quickly. However, their threat is extinguished when Depay's deflected cross is easily gathered by Neuer.
3'
The familiarity within the Netherlands side is evident as they quickly settle on the ball. Of today's starting line-up, 10 began their Nations League final defeat against Portugal last time out.
1'
Artur Dias of Portugal is our referee today. He blows his whistle and Germany get us underway!
Germany can go top of Group C by maintaining their 100 per cent start to qualifying with victory at Volsparkstadion today. Meanwhile, defeat for the Netherlands would leave them nine points adrift of the top two.

The Netherlands scored twice in the final 11 minutes to beat Germany 4-2 in Hamburg. The Germans had took an early lead through Serge Gnabry, while Toni Kroos equalised from the penalty spot after Frenkie de Jong and a Jonathan Tah own-goal had turned the contest on its head. However, debutant Donyell Malen climbed off the bench to put the Dutch back in front, before Georginio Wijnaldum sealed the deal in stoppage time.
Germany will be look to get back to winning ways when they face Group C leaders Northern Ireland on Monday, while the Netherlands travel to Estonia aiming to move level on points with Joachim Low's side.
