Myron Boadu was the celebrated man on Sunday, when AZ was too strong for Feyenoord at home with 4-2. The striker, who also hurt Feyenoord earlier this season in De Kuip (2-3 win) with two hits, took three of the four goals and thus became the second-youngest player at the age of twenty. with a hat-trick against Feyenoord, after Marco van Basten. After the game, the young striker opted for the camera of ESPN a lucky one out for the game ball.

Thanks to his hat-trick, Boadu is on eleven hits in the Eredivisie after Sunday. The AZ striker was stimulated by his father. “He was already complaining that I hadn’t made a hat trick yet. He gets the match ball, ”said Boadu. The good performance of the striker was not very inconvenient, as national coach Frank de Boer was an attentive spectator during the top match. “Nice that he was there”, said Boadu. The attack leader was brought to the Dutch for the first time in November 2019 and was immediately accurate on his debut in the 5-0 win against Estonia.

Boadu was tailor-made twice against Feyenoord by successively Calvin Stengs and Owen Wijndal, who painfully exposed the weaknesses in the defense at Feyenoord. “They also asked themselves: what was the most beautiful? I really can’t choose. That ball from Calvin is not normal, but he gives those balls every week. Maybe Owen’s then. ” Wijndal put the ball from the left side of the field between Marcos Senesi and goalkeeper Justin Bijlow, after which it was a breeze for Boadu to shoot the 2-2 against the ropes.

AZ then took a step back in the second half. “I got good balls and everything went in. I don’t think I missed an opportunity, ”said Boadu. Due to the defeat, Feyenoord seems to have to say goodbye to second place for good, now that the gap with PSV has increased to eight points. AZ is two points away from the place that entitles you to a Champions League ticket at the end of the ride. Boadu has also joined the list of top scorers. “I’m not going to make it to number one anymore. Whether I can be second on the top scorers list? Malen has fourteen? Should be OK.”
