And that will be difficult, because Telstar recorded a convincing 3-0 win over NAC Breda last Friday, while AZ played poorly against FC Utrecht (2-0 loss).
According to Echteld, this performance cannot be seen separately from the many forced substitutions he has to make to physically guide players through the season as best as possible. AZ plays a lot of European matches and Telstar does not. “Telstar can train for a whole week without restrictions. Then you can rest in time and look for your peak moments.”
