The Dutch team won 2-0 in Holland tonight thanks to goals from former Rangers striker Shota Arveladze and fellow striker Danny Koevermans. That made the aggregate score 4-4 but AZ progressed by virtue of scoring two away goals at St James' Park. 'I think the best team went through. We scored two chances but we have had three or four,' van Gaal told ITV1. 'Newcastle also had chances but because of the second half in Newcastle we were better, I believe. 'Newcastle are a top team so this match I think is the best match we could have played and I have to give my players a big compliment.'
