Van der Meijde helps stranded referee Nijhuis along the A1

Original: bas nijhuis

Dutch football media report that former Ajax player Rafael van der Meijde came to the aid of referee Bas Nijhuis, whose car broke down along the A1 motorway. VoetbalPrimeur's 'Buitenspel' column jokingly compared the rescue to roadside assistance, dubbing Van der Meijde the 'Wegenwacht' for helping the stranded official get back on the road.

Why now: The humorous story of a well-known ex-footballer rescuing a famous referee is making the rounds in Dutch football media.
