Netherlands: Ramiz Zerrouki scores as Twente secures massive win
Algerian international Ramiz Zerrouki played a key role in FC Twente's 9-0 thrashing of Excelsior Rotterdam during the 11th round of the Dutch league. Playing the full 90 minutes, the midfielder netted his first league goal of the season from the penalty spot in the 71st minute. This brings his tally to three goals across all competitions, following his strike in the Conference League. Currently sitting fourth in the league, Twente provides a favorable environment for the 28-year-old to relaunch his form. Zerrouki is aiming to prove his value to Algeria's national team coach Brahim Hemdani, hoping his recent momentum will earn him a call-up despite the intense competition in the midfield squad.
