Wouter Goes does not score every week. And if he succeeds, it is something he can enjoy for a long time. With a lot of energy and joy, the Amsterdammer stood in front of the camera and gave his analysis. “I saw the ball coming and I thought it’s going in.”
No Instagram friends
Wouter Goes’ main task is to eliminate strikers and he succeeds quite well. On Friday evening he fought fierce duels with Samuel Armenteros. The Swedish striker of Heracles was regularly irritated by Goes. “I don’t think I’m going to add him on Instagram,” says the Young AZ defender with a smile.
