Dordrecht :
FC Dordrecht scored a point from the duel with Achilles ’29 on Friday. Prior to that, it gave three points to the advantage of the Dordtenaren, and so it did not make any mistake for Gérard de Nooijer’s team. At the De Heikant sports park, the home team opened stronger. Achilles was allowed to use a penalty shootout, but after about half an hour, he finished playing ahead. Joey Godee pulled the margin to rest from the penalty shootout. In the second half, the pressure on the Dordtse goal was even higher, and eventually Tim Coremans had to capitulate. During the injury time, Dordrecht managed to get along later due to the goal of Erol Alkan.
“This makes football so beautiful. If you make up to 2-2 – Awesome goal of Erol – you can only be happy, “De Nooijer’s first became afterwards. “I thought we were the first half lord and master, we had everything under control until we got a penalty kick.” Dordrecht was still on track, but could not pass in the second half. “Pff, that was not the best. Then I’m talking about football. We did everything we could to get a point in, but we left us back too far. If that happens then there are many scenarios by your head. But we’re still believing in it and then you’ll see that you’re rewarding yourself, “the trainer looked back.
The Nooijer is aware that there is nothing left in it. De Nooijer: “You can congratulate me on the point, but we are not there yet. I also said to the boys: you can enjoy on the way back, but afterwards focus on Emmen again, because we really need to get a good fight. “Alvin Daniels returns from a suspension and starts straight into the base. In addition, Lulu Statia returns from injury. Sai van Wermeskerken was injured on Friday, but it seems that it was not serious.
Probable setup FC Dordrecht
Coremans; Van Wermeskerken, Amevor, Alkan, De Nooijer; Touré, Godee, Kramer; Da Cruz, Daniels, Pisas
FC Emmen :
FC Emmen is doing excellent since the winter break. Only three games were lost, but Dick Lukkien’s team has not yet been able to assure themselves of match competition. The Emmenians simply play too much. Last Friday against NAC Breda followed the eighth point division of 2017. In the first half, FC Emmen had difficulty with the visitors. NAC made use of opportunities after which Emmen recovered better in the second half, partly due to fatigue symptoms in both teams. Emmen got a chance at 1-0 and might have had a penalty kick. However, NAC was closest to a victory, but Dennis Telgenkamp kept his team up one by one.
His team got well away by not resting on his back, Dick Lukkien found. “In the first half, NAC was the better team. We were reasonably sent from the cabinet to the wall. At rest I asked the players to put some more energy into the game. That was not easy considering the third match in eight days, but still they did. With a bit of luck Alexander Bannink could still score the 1-0. I think I was not totally deserved, but I’m still happy about the resilience they’ve shown, “the coach said afterwards.
Defender Deniz Aslan had promising words for his goalkeeper. “Dennis saved us for a defeat. He is really busy and may be the best goalkeeper of the Jupiler League, “said the right back missing Friday due to a suspension. An alternative is not available and so Lukkien has to puzzle. Niek Bakker is an option, so Josimar Lima will play the central backdrop. Left behind Niels Fleuren or attacker Gersom Klok, who have played this season before, are the alternatives. Although the lead is not big, it should not miss anymore in the last two games. FC Emmen is still numbering 19 and 18 with Dordrecht and Jong FC Utrecht.
Probable setup FC Emmen
Telgenkamp; Clock, Bakker, Siekman, Loen; Kallon, Bannink, Türk, Olijve; Peters, Huisman
