We played today in stadium de Koel against VVV. We had no injuries today so we could start with our own team.
After three minutes of play it was already 1-1. VVV quickly took the lead but right from the kickoff the score was level again. Jesse sent Joep deep with a nice long pass and he stayed calm in front of the goal. In the 9th minute VVV took the lead again. It was an open match where the game went up and down quickly. Three minutes before halftime Jesse drove forward with the ball and he lashed out beautifully. The goalkeeper was hopeless. 2-2.
In the second half we wanted to push VVV as far as possible in their own half. This worked out great. In midfield Nassim had the ball on a string, Tim captured balls and Dylan was able to dribble forward all the time. We played a very good second half. Nassim and Dylan got small opportunities. VVV didn't get into it. At the back we stood like a house. Unfortunately we could not reward our play and we rested with 2-2 on the scoreboard.
After halftime we wanted to score quickly and decide this match as soon as possible. Unfortunately that did not happen. We could not keep our high level and VVV got hope. They scored the 3-2 and a few minutes before time also the decisive 4-2.
Today we showed what we can do. Especially in the second half we brought out the best in ourselves. Next Wednesday we will play an exercise game (6 against 6) against Wodan.
