Netherlands-France game to halt in 14th minute to honour Cruyff

The Netherlands-France international friendly on Friday will pause in the 14th minute in honour of Dutch legend Johann Cruyff who died Thursday, the country's football association announced.

Cruyff, who passed away Thursday at the age of 68 after a battle with cancer, wore the number 14 on his Ajax and Dutch national shirt during his glittering playing career.

Before the match, a minute's silence will also be observed in memory of the victims of the Brussels attacks on Tuesday.
