Trainer Robin Peter was also positive about his team’s performance against the leader. The German coach surprised with a tactical adjustment: midfielder Julius Kade started as a striker, just like in the earlier match against Telstar. This time the gamble turned out better. “The performance was good,” says Peter. “We had a lot of speed on the flanks, we applied pressure in a different way, which is why Julius Kade started up front. We haven’t done that often.”
Peter also explains how he views the rankings and what he thinks of the development of his team. Due to the draw, the red and white are in fifth place. On Friday, the people of Emmen will face number 15 in the rankings: Jong AZ.
