Liverpool defender Van Dijk suffers injury setback in Holland action

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk suffered a dislocated finger while in action with Holland.

Van Dijk had to have it pushed back into place on the sidelines as the Dutch took on Norway.

Davy Klaassen cancelled out Erling Haaland's opener as Van Dijk completed the 90 minutes in a 1-1 draw.

The Netherlands will play Montenegro and Turkey over the next seven days as they look to take control of Group G of their World Cup qualifying group.

So far they have seven points from four games with their defeat coming against table toppers Turkey in March.

Van Dijk is expected to play in both games provided he's fit.
