Dries Mertens is definitely not showing off yet. He showed this on Saturday evening at Galatasaray.
Ten minutes before half-time, Mertens provided a wonderful assist to his striker Mauro Icardi, who scored the 1-0 with a placed cross from the former Red Devil. The Argentinian only had to put his foot against the measured cross.

Ten minutes later it was Mertens’ turn to score: after briefly outsmarting the defense, he placed the ball flawlessly over the visiting goalkeeper. His first since August.

After halftime, Mertens scored his second goal of the evening. This time it was not he who served Icardi, but the other way around. The Argentinian headed the ball back to Mertens, who put the 3-0 on the scoreboard.

Galatasaray aan kop
Ultimately, Zaha made it 4-0. So it was an easy victory, partly thanks to Mertens, for Galatasaray, which is in the lead in the Turkish first division.
