Virgil van Dijk consoles referee Ovidiu Hategan at full-time

That man broke down, stood with tears in his eyes because he had just lost his mother, Van Dijk, who scored a 90th minute equaliser to send his nation into the Nations League semi-final.I wished him strength and said that he had refereed well. It’s a small thing, but maybe it helps him.
