The Ajax – RKC match was narrowly won by the team from Amsterdam after Tadic scored the winning goal in the last minutes from the penalty spot. Haller would prefer to take the penalties, but Tadic is still at the top of the list when a penalty has to be taken. Although he missed a penalty twice, the Serb remains a favorite according to Haller.
When asked after the game if there has been a discussion about who gets to take the penalties, Haller says with a laugh: “You can’t talk to Tadic about this.” But Haller’s wish to be more often from eleven meters behind the ball, he does not hide. “I will do something to get more penalties.”
At the same time, the striker says that the penalties are in good hands with the Serb. “He’s at the top of the list,” Haller says. “He can’t stop after two missed penalties and say: ‘I have to leave that to someone else.’ No, he will keep scoring.”
