At the start of the winter and Corona stop, Gorecht was at the top in 2J and together with DZOH a street length ahead of the competition. Both teams have been losing points since the resumption, with Gorecht making a big difference. Last Saturday, the difficult 2-1 win over last-placed NEC Delfzijl was the first win in five matches. DZOH came into view again. Trainer Hans van der Ploeg knows the temporary setback is due to a lack of competition as a result of Corona: ,,Now there is something to choose from again.” That earned the talented Sam Niewold a place on the reserve bench.
