Netherlands: Hadj Moussa puts on a show against his opponent! (Video)

Back from his injury with Feyenoord, Anis Hadj Moussa reclaimed his starting spot against AZ Alkmaar. Although he did not make a decisive contribution, the Algerian international shone with a technical move that quickly went viral.
Anis Hadj Moussa didn't need to score or provide an assist to grab attention this Saturday. Returning from an injury sustained with Algeria during the international break, the Algerian winger started in the crucial Eredivisie match between Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar, with the top spot in the league at stake.
Although Feyenoord won the match 2-0, Hadj Moussa did not have a direct impact on either goal. However, he regained his form and, most importantly, his ability to provoke defenders, which has been his strength throughout the season.
One action, in particular, caught attention and quickly spread on social media. With the ball near midfield, the Algerian fixed his opponent before executing a perfectly timed nutmeg. Outpaced and beaten, his opponent had no choice but to pull him back by the shirt to stop the play, prompting the referee to call a foul.
A simple yet impressive move that perfectly illustrates Hadj Moussa's style: boldness, agility, and confidence in one-on-one situations. After his physical setback with the national team, this starting position and type of action also represent an encouraging sign for the rest of his season with Feyenoord.
