The clip is associated online with Anthony Kruijver, whose hyped sii delivery helped the Dutch phrase spread as a short reaction sound on meme pages and in edited videos. Maatje is Dutch slang for mate, and loev is a playful spelling of love, so the line roughly means loving it, mate. Its short length and football style celebration tone made it easy to reuse for goals, gaming clips and WhatsApp style jokes, where the shout works even without any visual context.
