Viewers of Holland's victory over Poland on Sunday found themselves grimacing as the cameras cut to Ronaldo Koeman picking his nose and appearing to eat what he found.<br/><br/>The Holland manager drew comparisons to former Germany boss Joachim Low as he inserted his finger into his nose before licking it.<br/><br/>Low went viral on multiple occasions, both for picking his nose and sniffing his hand after reaching into his trousers.<br/><br/>The clip of Koeman quickly garnered traction after it was posted on social media during the game with fans understandably disgusted.<br/><br/>The Dutchman is unlikely to be too concerned after his side came from behind to win their Euro 2024 opener. <br/><br/>Substitute Wout Weghorst struck late on to earn them a 2-1 win over Poland in their Group D clash.<br/><br/>Adam Buksa headed Poland into an early lead at Hamburg's Volksparkstadion, but Cody Gakpo ensured it was level at half-time.<br/><br/>The Netherlands pushed for a late winner and it arrived when Burnley forward Weghorst fired home in the 83rd minute.<br/><br/>Poland was without captain and talisman Robert Lewandowski due to a thigh injury but still took the lead in the 16th minute.<br/><br/>Piotr Zielinski, who took the armband in Lewandowski's absence, produced a fine corner which Buksa headed into the far corner.<br/><br/>It sparked jubilant scenes from substitute Lewandowski in the Poland dugout and delivered a shock to the Netherlands, who had entered the tournament with six wins in seven matches and 21 goals scored during that period.<br/><br/>There was a quick response from Koeman's men, though, with Liverpool forward Gakpo able to level after 29 minutes.<br/><br/>Nathan Ake burst forward to win a loose ball and tee up Gakpo, who found the net from 22 yards with the help of a deflection for his 10th international goal.<br/><br/>It remained level at the break, but the Netherlands started strongly after half-time and Xavi Simons sliced wide when well-placed after good work by Gakpo.<br/><br/>Koeman's men continued to dictate possession, only for Poland to go close when Nicola Zalewski had a header saved by Brighton's Bart Verbruggen.<br/><br/>As the seconds ticked away, Koeman turned to his bench and Weghorst provided the answer when he rifled home Ake's low ball into the area just two minutes after coming on.<br/>
