The football fairy tale van Waalwijk will have to process a hard blow from Twente corner on Sunday. RKC loses for the first time in 5 games in the Eredivisie. In a crazy away match against FC Twente in the Grolsch Veste, it rained great opportunities for both teams, but it remained ‘only’ 2-0 for Twente.
With that, RKC does not continue the positive line that started a number of matches ago. RKC must now look again in the ranking when the Almere sees up to 3 points.

RKC does not know how to cash in opportunities
In the opening phase, RKC left the ball to Twente and hoped to become dangerous with counter football. Unfortunately, that does not work out well for Henk Fraser’s team. In the 28th minute the Waalwijkers fell behind due to an unparalleled goal from Sam Lammers who was back in the base for the Tukkers for the first time in a long time.
For a moment, RKC seems to be completely lost and Twente is stringing the opportunities, but keeper Jeroen Houwen manages to prevent worse with a few rescues. A shot from Richonell Margaret almost almost provides a surprising equalizer.
Just before half time, RKC crawls out of the shell and gets adult opportunities through Mohammed Ihattaren, among others. She doesn’t know how to cash it in.
Enormous opportunities
RKC will continue that line after the break with enormous opportunities for Margaret and Ihattaren. It then waves up and down for a long time, but the game bleeds, probably due to fatigue on both sides, in the last fifteen minutes.
Top scorer Sem Steijn made the liberating 2-0 for the Tukkers in the 83rd minute and with that all hope for a good result for the people from Brabant.
Next week, Fraser’s team will have the opportunity to recover against Fortuna Sittard in -house.
