Wout Weghorst gave a brutally honest appraisal of his performance following the Netherlands' 3-0 triumph against Gibraltar on Monday night.
On a bad night in Rotterdam, the Manchester United striker had eight of the Oranje's 51 shots against the foreign minnows, but he was unsuccessful in finding the back of the net.
Memphis Depay and Nathan Ake, who scored a hat trick, were responsible for the goals instead, but despite the victory, neither Weghorst nor the national team were able to separate the good from the bigger, more negative image.
The former Burnley attacker gave a frank evaluation of his performance in the team's second Euro qualification game in an interview with ESPN after the game.
'There were a few situations where I was close, but just always not,' the 30-year-old started.
'It's just... just s**,'he said.
Since moving to Old Trafford, the striker has only scored twice. As you remember, Weghorst signed a loan agreement to join Manchester United in January.
Wout Weghorst added: 'Bad luck? Whether it's bad luck...' the player trailed off.
'Ultimately, it's also quality. You have to be honest about that too. You can call it bad luck, but that last ball of mine was allowed in. As a striker, you know that you can score in these kind of competitions.
'That sucks.'
