In the line-ups
21 appearances in recorded line-ups · 2006–2014The archive holds 21 team sheets naming Robin van Persie in Netherlands's starting line-up, from 2006-06-11 to 2014-07-12.
21 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
The archive also records 1 own goal under this name (2015) — own goals never count in a scorer's tally.
