Today a home game, another practice game and the last one before the resumption of the league, today against VVGZ E3 from Zwijndrecht.
We start with 9 players against VVGZ E3. After changing clothes, getting goals ready and warming up we were ready to start at 09.30 for 3x 20 minute periods.
In the first part of the match it went evenly between both teams, with a little more chances for PSV. It also took some getting used to the big boys; how the boys of the F2 have to deal with them.
After about 5 minutes we scored 1-0 through Tim after a good attack, action Reda/ball Tijn. The next part of the game was still fairly even, but we had to get used to the physical resistance. We also started to miss more and more chances by being in a hurry or not looking properly for example.
Just before halftime we scored 2-0 through a header by Eus.
In the first half we drank some water, talked about playing together but also about the hurried actions which sometimes made it sloppy.
In the second half we started reasonably, with more actions on the ball. This worked reasonably well, but sometimes it was also very busy on a small playing field. However, we managed to score a lot of goals in the first 10 minutes of the second period and we were soon up 6-0.
In the last phase of this block we had the ball a lot and played a lot together, 8-0 score at the end of it.
Even though it was cold we drank some water again and quickly moved on.
In the third block VVGZ had energy (left) to make it difficult for us. With a lot of pressure and duels they took balls away and also scored their first goal.
Only halfway we scored our next goal and after that it went a bit better and we were not in trouble, eventually an 11-1 result. A nice result as the last practice game towards the resumption of the competition.
Next week we start with an away game against SBC.
Tijn Smolenaars, Tim van den Heuvel, Immanuel Hagemans,Tijn Vergeldt, Emir Bars, Reda el Meliani, Eus Waayers, Bram Rovers and Arthur Piedfort.
