But the Argentinian won the penalty from which Dusan Tadi? levelled.

In the 89th minute, Davy Klaassen set up Brobbey with a super flick and the 19-year-old kept his composure to slot home the winning goal through Maignan’s legs

Brobbey told RTL 7: ''We were definitely the better side, and after a careless mistake on our part I thought we recovered extremely well.

''I did what I had to do: score. Dusan [Tadi?] played the ball through to Davy [Klaassen], and I had a feeling he was going to knock it on, so I went deep. And, luckily, remained cool once I got the ball."
