Van Persie enthused by Dutch quality
Posted Thursday, May 27, 2010 by PA
Robin van Persie was left satisfied with his two-goal return for Holland in their 2-1 friendly win over Mexico.
The 26-year-old striker had not played for the Oranje since rupturing ankle ligaments in a friendly against Italy in November. He scored his goals during a dominant first-half Dutch display from a pair of defence-splitting assists by midfield duo Rafael van der Vaart and Ibrahim Afellay.
"The assists of Van der Vaart and Afellay were both amazing," Van Persie told SBS6. "It wasn't too much of a problem to find the net after their great passes. This Dutch team really is of very high quality."
