For a long time, Telstar held out with ten men against the eleven of Helmond Sport. In the end, Mike Snoei’s team still had to collect the equalizer in injury time: 2-2. The turning point in the game was the red card for Christos Giousis. “Stupid. He shouldn’t let it get to that.”

“It was light as a feather and then so resolutely draw a red card. We will discuss it with Giousis. The referee probably calls this kicking the ball, but this was ticking,” Snoei looks back on the incident.
“Harrowing. Just do your work during the week”
Moreover, Snoei did not have a good word for his colleague Bob Peeters, who used a feigned injury to his goalkeeper halfway through the first half to address his team. “Harrowing. It was about respect and tolerance tonight. You drive whole groups crazy with this. The whole team came to the side. Just do your job during the week.”

Deathly ill
For Thomas Oude Kotte were tonight, just like for all others White Lions, the grapes sour. “I am sick to death. We get a red card, but we deal with it well as a team. You always blame someone who gets a red card like that,” said Oude Kotte.
