Teun Koopmeiners had a birthday last night that will not soon be forgotten. The Dutch midfielder was allowed to blow out 24 candles and crowned that happy fact with two goals in the match against Sampdoria (4-0).

Two goals with his right leg. And that on his birthday. It was his third and fourth goal of the season for Koopmeiners, who already played twenty Serie A games this season. In recent weeks, the former AZ midfielder has manifested himself not only as a basic player in the Italian league, but also as one of the stars of the team from Bergamo.
Marten de Roon, who also played a good game himself, is not averse to having fun on social media and logically also paid attention to his compatriot’s piece of art: ,,And then they say that the Dutch are greedy… Teun treats us on two goals on his birthday. Dinner at my expense, friend (just kidding, let’s split),” his Dutch teammate wrote on Twitter.
The Italian media are also impressed by Koopmeiners, who Eurosport is called an “overwhelming midfielder”. ,,One of the best new faces in our league. Has a constant desire to score and scored two goals to remember. A super player”, it is written about Koopmeiners, who was also elected Man of the Match with a 7.5.
“The Koopmeiners show”, writes Tuttosport and “Koopmeiners shows it”, headlines Corriere dello Sport, the Italian medium that also pays attention to another Dutchman: Hans Hateboer. “Sampdoria is having trouble building up, partly due to Hateboer’s constant insistence.” The right back is also passed by Eurosport rewarded with a 7: ,,A thorn in the side of the Sampdoria defense. Switches continuously with his teammates and constantly crosses the backline. Great evening.”
