HOLLAND scored one of the goals of the World Cup so far against the USA as Memphis Depay finished off a breathtaking team move.
The Dutch booked their place in the quarter-finals with an accomplished 3-1 victory over the US in Qatar on Saturday.
And Depay’s strike caught the eye as Louis van Gaal’s men showcased the impressive talent throughout their team.
Holland played 20 uninterrupted passes in the lead-up to the Barcelona man’s finish.
That is more than any Dutch World Cup goal since records began way back in 1966.
And football fans were gushing in their praise for Van Gaal’s side as they produced a statement team goal during the last-16 clash.
Reacting on social media, one person said: “Arguably the best team goal we’ll see in #Qatar2022 because this will take something special to beat.
“Right from their own half, Holland worked it beautifully with tidy and timely passes until Depay fires home. Lovely move 👏.”
While former Ireland international David Meyler added: “That’s my favourite goal of the World Cup so far.
“Beautiful football by the Dutch. Lovely one touch passing from back to front and a quality finish from Depay 👏🏼.”
