FIFA WC 2026: Gakpo, Brobbey 'proud' To Be Mentioned Alongside Legends Robben And Van Persie
FIFA World Cup: After Dutch duo Brian Brobbey and Cody Gakpo matched countrymen Robben and Van Persie's feat of scoring twice each in the same World Cup match, they said, "To be mentioned alongside the legends is something to be proud of."
In 2014, Netherlands swept aside reigning champions Spain 5-1, inspired by magnificent performances and stunning goals from Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie. The pair became the first Dutch duo to score twice each in the same World Cup match.
They held that distinction alone for 12 years and seven days until Saturday, when Brobbey and Gakpo matched the feat in another 5-1 win for the Netherlands in the FIFA World Cup 2026 match against Sweden.
