De Jong took an outrageous turn in the stoppage time of the game to go past Toni Kroos.
The Ajax midfielder completed 62 passes in the game and secured a 86% pass accuracy. He also made eight successful tackles in the game.
Both the players will renew their rivalry in the league next season as De Jong joins Barcelona.
There are also reports about Matthijs de Ligt joining the Catalan side, and it has been claimed that Barcelona’s president Sandro Russell will himself travel to Amsterdam to secure the signing for the player.
How Twitter reacted..

Frenkie De Jong loses the ball and wins it back with a perfect tackle. Many see him as a elegant passer which is true but his defensive abilities are very underrated, Barcelona have signed a fine player. #NEDGER pic.twitter.com/yZ2gdlyceF

Virgil van Dijk: “They locked down Frenkie de Jong in the first half, we weren’t able to find him and couldn’t play our football. In the second half we changed our tactics and Frenkie was able to get the ball very easily. Then the 2nd half got a lot better.” [nos] pic.twitter.com/TaLZI5tjbO

Frenkie de Jong: “We might had to be satisfied with the 2-2 result but if you are playing that good, it’s understandable that you try to push for more. Afterwards it’s easy to talk. The disappointment is big, but we still get them away and we’ll make sure to get a result there.” pic.twitter.com/XPGs7cJPXG
