I have to disagree. Ok, his goal was first class. But later in the game, he appeared kind of selfish. He often didn't see his team mates, who were standing in a much better position to score. Instead he tried it by himself and most of the time lost the ball and the chance.

But probably it's just me. I grew up during the aera of Cruyff, Neeskens, Rensenbrink (IMHO one of best European player ever, but never really recognized), van de Kerkhoff twins... So my expectations may be to high..
