General director Thijs van Es: „An absolute disgrace, the behavior of a number of people after the match. I consciously don’t call it supporters, because this has nothing to do with support or our club. Putting security personnel and riot police in insecurity when they are there to ensure safety for everyone in the stadium is really outrageous.” The ME would have been pelted with stones.
“This first game of the season should be a party, feel like coming home. It now feels like a false start and then I express myself mildly. We are shocked and will work together with the Public Prosecution Service to severely punish these rioters, which can be seen clearly in the images,” said Van Es.
