In the heated Europa League group stage, the Netherlands beat Romania with an overwhelming 3-0 victory, with two strikes before the 83rd minute being the turning point of the game. After halftime, Donyell Mallon showed his killer instinct and became another big surprise for the Dutch team after Weggerghese.
Since joining the Dutch team, Mallon has made 35 starts and 20 appearances as a substitute. In this game, he hit two goals in 45 minutes, showing great efficiency. The counterattack in extra time started from the midfield, he accelerated between two defenders and hit a precise shot, causing the opponent's defense to fall apart.
In the history of the Dutch team, Mallen became the third player to score more than two goals in a knockout match after German greats Bialhofer and Meton. In addition, Mallon has scored eight goals as a substitute for the Netherlands, equal with Huntelaar and second on the national team's substitute scoring list behind Yun Ho Dang (10 goals).
