Denzel Dumfries was one of the figures this Saturday in the victory of the Netherlands against the United States 3-1.
The player who plays for Inter Milan took out his entire arsenal and left a goal and two assists for his team.
The defender has earned the love of an entire nation and the approval of his team's coach, Louis van Gaal.
Dumfries was one of the architects of the qualification of the Netherlands to the quarterfinals of the World Cup, with his great display of play.

For the player, this Saturday's meeting was also a response to the bombardment of questions with which the tournament began.
“When we play with a line of five defenders there are other spaces. This system shows that spaces can be created where they pose a lot of danger to the rival, ”he assured.
The footballer went through the first three games leaving hardly any trace, but it was against the United States that he awakened his full potential.
Now Dumfries turns the page and is preparing to face next Friday's match against the Argentine team.
