Bianca Westwood stunned by Nathan Holland for Oxford v Accrington
One name West Ham United fans won’t have heard in a while is Nathan Holland while at Oxford on loan once again.
The winger certainly made the headlines on Tuesday evening though, scoring two goals in a big win over Accrington Stanley.
It was the first goal that stunned many though, including Bianca Westwood as she watched the solo goal at the Kassam Stadium.
Speaking live on Sky Sports, Westwood was stunned by the West Ham loanee as he made it look easy with his goals.
“Wonderful piece of skill from Nathan Holland,” she said.
“He did get a little bit of luck but it’s a cool finish to put Oxford one goal to the good.”
Holland got his second only five minutes later, although this was a team move that his finish got the praise for.
“Again, it was another smart finish,” Westwood said.
Watching?
Unfortunately for Holland, things have gone to another level since he last had his chance at the London Stadium.
There has always been a big hype surrounding his talent at the club, but with the introduction of European football and some big-name signings mean that his chances are now more limited than ever.
David Moyes will likely be given reports on his loanees away from the club and would be impressed with the flair and composure of Holland, but is that enough?
With Jarrod Bowen and Said Benrahma shining, there is little to no chance of Holland having a long-term future with the Irons.
This was just a taste of what he can do, but can we really compare League One to the Premier League and Europe? No, we can’t.
