PSV managed to qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League on Wednesday evening with an inspired 3-1 performance at their own Philips Stadium against Juventus after extra time. With Ryan Flamingo scoring the decisive goal, it capped a superb outing for the defender and left many wondering just how much the 22-year-old may be worth.
After the match, tv pundits and former players Boudewijn Zenden and André Ooijer, were asked who their man of the match was. UEFA chose Noa Lang. “Choosing a man of the match is still quite difficult because they all played excellently”, said Zenden at Ziggo Sport.” Boscagli also held on for a long time after three weeks of absence”, he noted.
Ooijer, however, had little doubt: “If you are talking about a man of the match, for me it is Flamingo.”
Voetbal International reporter Süleyman Öztürk was also lyrical afterwards. “You can put a price on Ryan Flamingo: at least 75 million euros or he will stay in Eindhoven”, he wrote on X.
