Blooper by Isabelle Slump is the final blow for ACV

The ACV goalkeeper was closer to crying than laughing. She simply handed the ball to the dangerous striker Aysha Diallo, who then sealed the fate of ACV: 1-3. “I’m terribly angry with myself. It was just a mistake on my part, Slump bleated. “He was doing very well up until that point. Because of my mistake we lost the match.”

Fortunately, Slump, who lives in Groningen and was also a goalkeeper for competitor Oranje Nassau – the next opponent of the Asser team – quickly came to realize that the team of coach Freddy Bollegraaf simply has to continue the thread of the successful first three matches. picking up. “Would I be able to sleep tonight?” Of course she would, she laughed. “My mistake was annoying, but we just have to keep going. We have a really nice team and have done well so far. Only today we fell short.”

It wasn’t possible today

Until Slump’s fatal mistake, there might have been more interest in ACV. However, it is fair to say that the experienced team from Zeist had just a little more substance than the team from Assen, which according to many was surprisingly promoted to the Top Class. Bollegraaf could therefore live with his team’s defeat. “It’s a pity, but it wasn’t possible for us today. Losing to this excellent team is no reason for us to panic.”, Bollgraaf stated in all reality.

There was hardly any difference in strength in the first half. Both teams kept the field wide with careful football. The defenses were always attentive, so that there were hardly any big opportunities. Nevertheless, Saestum took the lead after half an hour (0-1), but a header by Dionne Keizer just missed the equalizer. The relentlessly dragging striker Pascalle Pomper also caused Saestum’s defense some problems. Pomper saw her hard work rewarded with the equalizer ten minutes after the restart. After good perseverance, she scored inexorably: 1-1 “But she only played at 60 percent due to an operation,” said Bollegraaf. “When she is 100 percent fit, she is a beast for any opponent.”

Defeat had to come at some point

However, ACV’s equalizer was immediately answered with the renewed lead for the Western team. In a short time, the people of Assen were confronted with the facts. First, Iris Aalbertsen passed the vainly jumping Slump with a high bet ball (1-2) and then the match was gratefully closed by Aysha Diallo, the best player on the field, thanks to the ACV goalie: 1-3. Does ACV now have both feet on the ground again? “The first defeat had to come at some point. “We try to maintain ourselves as early as possible. However, we will first focus entirely on the confrontation with Oranje Nassau in two weeks”
