After the 2-0 home win over SC Cambuur, FC Volendam’s counter is at 30 points. Probably not enough for direct enforcement in the premier league, but with four more league games on the program, the Volendam team has that ticket up for grabs. “This is a very big step”, said a happy trainer Wim Jonk.
The Volendammer saw his team deliver a very poor first half against Cambuur that can hardly avoid relegation. What also didn’t help is that both Gaetano Oristanio and Brian Plat had to leave the field injured in the first half. Jonk: “Oristanio already had minor complaints, but it seemed to be getting better. Brian had the same. We have to see how it is tomorrow.”
One of the replacements was Déron Payne. The 20-year-old defender recently made his debut in the home game against Feyenoord. Then his performance was limited to ten minutes. This time he played for an hour. “I gave everything and I’m broken, but I think it went well,” said the right back. Jonk: “He has filled it in well. It is important that you keep the peace.”
