Arjen Robben: 'Netherlands need to rebuild after Euro 2016 failure'

Netherlands captain Arjen Robben has earmarked his side's friendly against Wales as a chance to start rebuilding following failure to qualify for Euro 2016.

The Oranje finished fourth in their qualifying group to miss out on either automatic qualification or a playoff berth, despite starting as top seeds.

Robben, who has since succeeded Robin van Persie as skipper, told BBC Sport: "The only thing we can do is try and restart and rebuild.

"It is not nice to say but we have to start again and prepare for September 2016. It is a long way off but we have to cope with that reality, get some good results out of the upcoming games."

Netherlands last failed to qualify for a major international tournament in 2002.
