3 - Wout Weghorst is the second @OnsOranje player with three consecutive games in which he came on as a substitute and found the net, after Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink in 2007-2008 (3). Eager.
Nathan Aké created more chances than any other player against Poland (4).
He also won 100% of his duels, misplaced just three passes and provided an assist.
Wout Weghorst’s goal against Poland was the fastest by a Netherlands substitute at the European Championships (2 mins, 18 seconds).
He has now scored with each of his last three shots at major international tournaments.
