Ex-Man Utd ace Weghorst scores with his FIRST TOUCH for Holland but fans slam ‘clown’ Keown’s horror blunder

WOUT WEGHORST needed just one touch to fire Holland to victory – and leave Martin Keown red-faced.

The former Manchester United striker came off the bench to fire Holland to a 2-1 victory over Poland in the opening game of Group D.

Adam Buksa got the Poles off to a flyer at Euro 2024 when he put them ahead inside 16 minutes.

But Cody Gakpo levelled the scores before the break and it was the Dutch who dominated throughout the second period.

However, despite their dominance, Ronald Koeman’s side looked set for a frustrating afternoon as they struggled to breakthrough the resilient Polish backline.

That led to Wout Weghorst’s introduction with just under ten minutes left to go – and he did not take long to make an impact.

The former Manchester United forward, who has just spent the past season on loan at Hoffenheim from Burnley, had only been on the pitch two minutes when he put Holland ahead.

Nathan Ake was given too much space to drive forward, and the Man City star slipped in a ball for the onrushing Weghorst to meet and guide home into the net from close range.
