The hands went up and no smile was cracked. In an act that infuriates Against Modern Football types everywhere, Ryan Babel had poked Fulham level against old club Liverpool at Craven Cottage and refused to celebrate. Sack him immediately.
Not that it mattered anyway: just as viewers were getting worried about Fulham showing some competency, they stuffed it up and gave away a daft late penalty that James Milner converted for a nervy Liverpool win in west London.
But meaningless or otherwise, Babel’s second goal for the club he joined in January boosted his overall tally in the Premier League to 14, having struck 12 in 91 games as a Red following his £11.5m move from Ajax in 2007.
The 32-year-old is one of 33 Dutchmen to bag at least five goals in England’s top flight since 1992, and now we’d like you to name as many of them as you can in the six minutes provided below. Some are easy-peasy; others will have you wondering where you actually were when they made their mark.
Good luck, anyhow – and as ever, please do tell us how you got on (we’re at @FourFourTwo on Twitter). We’ll get you on our daily leaderboard if your score is good enough.
