“Good football is a little less important for now,” adds trainer Rick Kruys. “You now have to take the points. We have done that and that’s what it’s all about.”
The Volendammers were able to limit the damage to the break with a lot of art and flying. Soon in the second half, the FC Emmen connection goal still got the ears. That happened from an easily given penalty, Kruys saw. “It was an identical situation if it happened later with Jacobs. It is certainly separate that we will not get it, but I have decided not to say anything about the arbitration.” With that, the Utrechtman kept the jaws together.
Because of the victory, FC Volendam has firmly in the lead in the first division. The difference with FC Dordrecht (five points) and ADO Den Haag (six points) is great. The next match for Volendam is against VVV-Venlo on Saturday 22 February. The kick -off is 4.30 pm and that game can of course be followed via our live blog on the site and the app.
