Mitch Apau is on the scoresheet for Telstar after the 1-1 in Breda against NAC. Only the honest defender afterwards thought that it was not his hit. “I didn’t quite realize that I was making it.”
Although it didn’t feel like his goal, Mitch Apau’s goal ensured that Telstar left North Brabant with a point. The draw means the seventh game in a row that the team from Velsen-Zuid is unbeaten in the competition.

In conclusion, the draw in Breda is quite a nice achievement, but it does not yield much for the White Lions in the ranking. Telstar even drops a spot. The Velsenaren are now thirteenth. Next week the troubled ADO Den Haag will come to the IJmond.
