“The competition always comes first,” says Rick Kruys in the run-up to the cup match with NEC. In the Premier League, FC Volendam is just above the relegation zone in fifteenth place. Yet the goal is clear tomorrow evening in Nijmegen. “We want to go for it and are not going to make any concessions about it.”
Against the Nijmegen team, Kruys will not have the injured players Henk Veerman, Anthony Descotte and Gibson Yah at his disposal. Furthermore, Nordin Bukala and Joel Ideho also do not seem fit enough yet. “That’s quite a list and that means other guys have to show it.”
