Manchester City midfielder Jill Roord continued her impressive return from an anterior cruciate ligament injury as she scored twice in the Netherlands’ 15-0 friendly win over Indonesia.

It was a record victory for the Dutch – who had previously won 12-0 on three occasions – against an Indonesian side ranked 93 places below them in Fifa’s rankings.

Roord made her competitive return for City in the 1-0 Women’s Super League return over Brighton in September, just eight months after sustaining her ACL injury.

She scored her first goal of the season in Sunday’s 2-1 WSL win over Aston Villa and continued her form for the Netherlands as she played 61 minutes on her international return.

PSV’s Renate Jansen came off the bench to score a superb 15-minute hat-trick while club team-mate Nina Nijstad found the net on two occasions in the second half.

Ajax forward Lotte Keukelaar added two more either side of half-time as Romee Leuchter also scored twice.

Sherida Spitse converted from the penalty spot and Everton’s Katja Snoejis also got on the scoresheet.
