Holland scored in stoppage time through a deflected Wesley Sneijder shot to secure a 1-1 draw with Turkey on Saturday and avoid their first ever home defeat in European Championship qualifying . Klaas-Jan Huntelaar got a slight deflection to a long-range strike from captain Sneijder in the 92nd minute to rescue a point for the Dutch , who looked to be heading to their third defeat in five matches in Group A. Burak Yilmaz scored in the 37th minute at the Amsterdam Arena , given time in the penalty area to fire off a shot that took a deflection off Bruno Martins Indi to put the Turks ahead at halftime .

Burak Yilmaz ( left ) fired Turkey into the lead in the 37th minute in their game against Holland . The Netherlands stayed third in the standings with seven points from five games . Turkey have five points at the halfway point of the qualifying campaign . The home team had several chances in the first half with captain Sneijder , deputising for the injured Robin van Persie , going closest but their best came after the break when substitute Luciano Narsingh missed an open goal . Sneijder shot narrowly wide with a free kick and full back Jetro Willems went close with a rasping shot 10 minutes from time . The introduction of tall forward Bas Dost forced the Dutch to throw everything forward in a final assault and the equaliser came when Sneijder 's shot struck Huntelaar on the back of the head and deflected into goal . 'From the first minute we went for victory , ' Sneijder told Dutch television . 'Turkey had one chance in front of goal . We dominated and made chances but we took until injury time to get the equaliser . We did not impose ourselves enough in the first half but we were more attacking in the second and something had to fall for us in the end .

Dutch fortunes have fallen dramatically since finishing third at the World Cup in Brazil last year under coach Louis van Gaal . His successor , given a two-year contract until next year 's European Championship in France , has been under increasing pressure after the team lost two of their opening three qualifiers . A 6-0 home win over Latvia in November gave Hiddink breathing space but he will face more questions after narrowly avoiding defeat .
