Holland name seven strikers to face Scotland

Holland have brought back Dennis Bergkamp and Boudewijn Zenden for the friendly next week against Scotland.

Coach Frank Rijkaard was asked by Arsenal to rest the striker - who will retire from international football after the Euro 2000 finals - following several troublesome muscle injuries. Bergkamp missed the 3-3 draw last month against Belgium but is a likely starter against the Scots.

FC Barcelona's Zenden was also injured for that match as were Atletico Madrid forward Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Pierre van Hooijdonk.
