ToggleRangers ace Hagi lined up against the Dutch on Tuesday, with a quarter-final spot in the Euros on the line. For those who tuned in late to the contest, many would have been puzzled by Hagi's choice of head gear. Here's why the 25-year-old was donning this eye-catching attire.

Early on in Romania's encounter with the Netherlands, Hagi had a hefty coming together with Dutch defender Denzel Dumfries. Such was the force of the collision, the former was bleeding and that is why the medical staff felt a hair net was the right choice to stop the flow of blood and allow him to continue playing.
Former Genk player Hagi is the son of Romanian legend Gheorghe Hagi. His father played for Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Galatasaray, among others, in a glittering career — that included 124 caps for his country.
Hagi's Romania side went behind against the Netherlands thanks to Cody Gakpo's 20th-minute strike. Unless they turn things around quickly, Romania will exit the competition after a positive run to the knockout stages.
