Life as a football player for FC Volendam is not fun at the moment. Milan de Haan can talk about that. The midfielder was visibly shaken after the loss against NEC (2-5). “I just don’t know.”
“I felt a lot of disbelief,” says Milan de Haan about the initial phase. FC Volendam seemed to take the lead against NEC through Vivaldo Semedo’s goal, but the VAR found it annoyingly offside. A few seconds later NEC scored. “That is so annoying, which suddenly turns the match around.”
“Change Quickly”
Regillio Simons was also not happy with the Nijmegen goal shortly after the disallowed goal. “I hated it,” is the clear language of the Volendam trainer. “We concede goals very easily. That has to change very quickly.”

For the eighth game in a row, FC Volendam did not win. “These are hard figures,” said Simons. As a result, the club from the fishing village is disconsolately at the bottom of the Premier League.
Form
Still, the Eel farmers not giving up. Although De Haan found it difficult to come up with a solution shortly after the match. “As a young player, this is just tough. It is difficult for me to get into my own game and I hope to quickly find my old form again. The older boys help me with that.”
