Today the second match of this week's triptych. AZ comes to visit. We have some ground to make up against AZ after the game in Alkmaar. We start well and put good pressure. Only no real big chances. Not everyone in our team is having their best day today. AZ retreats to their own half and carry out the coach's order perfectly. After 33 minutes they crossed the center line three times and with these three razor-sharp counters they also managed to outsmart our rear guard three times. So after a little over half an hour it is now 0 - 3. a setback. After the break we have to strike back. A game has two halves. And indeed the second half is different. AZ is no longer in the game. We are dominant and push the opponent back. Only one thing we are not doing. We are not sharp enough in front of the goal. There are chances and chances but scoring is a shortcoming. But after 66 minutes a quick action by Martijn on the right, who goes into the sixteen and puts the ball back to Ramon, who hits the ball into the ropes from outside the sixteen. We do get chances but our aim is not always sharp. Just before time, Sam managed to get the ball into the goal and we pushed to keep a point in Eindhoven. But despite the referee's five extra minutes, it doesn't happen. Unfortunately. But the upward trend must have started by now. Saturday Feyenoord comes to the Herdgang. Then the next chance for three points. Men's success.
Goodbye.
