The Netherlands won an easy but unimpressive 3-0 victory against Liechtenstein on Friday in a warm up match ahead of their opening 2006 World Cup qualifier against the Czech Republic next week.New Dutch coach Marco van Basten tested two newcomers -- Khalid Boulahrouz and Romano Denneboom -- in his squad, which missed its complete defence due to injury. Defence midfielder Mark van Bommel opened the scoring for the Dutch in the 23d minute from a perfect cross by Dave van den Bergh. Andre Ooijer notched a second goal 11 minutes after the half time and Denny Landzaat fired the third. The depleted Liechtenstein side, missing key players, including goalkeeper Peter Jehle and midfielder Franz Burgmeier, broke the Dutch defence several times but failed to score.
