Kenneth Perez, a former FC Twente player and current ESPN commentator, strongly criticized Mees Hilgers following FC Twente’s 0-2 loss to Ajax Amsterdam at the Johan Cruijff Arena, as reported by Voetbal Primeur.

The match saw Twente suffer a significant setback, with the opening goal resulting from a critical error by Hilgers in the first half.

“Stupid Hilgers,” says Kenneth Perez

In a scathing on-air statement, Perez commented:

“That goal came from a foul. Sorry to say this, but the stupid Hilgers.”

His remarks reflected the frustration with the Indonesian national team defender’s performance in a high-stakes Eredivisie clash.

The blunder also drew attention in Southeast Asia. Soha.vn, a prominent Vietnamese outlet, emphasized that the region’s most expensive defender was on the receiving end of severe public criticism from a well-known football analyst.
