Rain of chances FC Volendam
In the cold far north, Young PSV wanted to follow up on last Monday's win over De Graafschap. The pledge team had a tough time in the first few minutes, FC Volendam created some good opportunities via the wings. Especially Abels had a hard time against his direct opponent Van Velzen, who created a lot of danger thanks to his speed. Completely against the odds, Young PSV did get a chance around the 30th minute. Rosario just failed to slide in a shot by Gudmundsson. Shortly after that it was raining chances for the home team. Van Velzen had the chance to make it 1-0, but his shot was caught by Van Osch. Only seconds later FC Volendam shot from distance on the crossbar and Kwakman headed just wide.
