In the second half the home side did manage to make the difference and it was still 3-1. Nevertheless, it was painful that the 1-1 was an own goal from Nick Bakker 2-1 and should have been avoided by Dennis Telgenkamp. “There still was a mop in the ball or he was touched, but then I should have had the ball,” the keeper was guilty.

After a sharp counterattack by Elvio van Overbeek, which was completed by Youssef El Jebli, opposition Cambuur was broken. Bart Straalman resulted in injury time for the somewhat flattering 3-0.
De Jong was obviously delighted. “Of course I’m relieved. This feels wonderful. The audience was fantastic, big compliment. I know too well, football is still a lot better, but we need some time now. In three months the sun shines again, beware. We will try to make a big club here again, “said De Jong after the game. It is important that they do not run out of stock in Doetinchem, as a good basis has yet to be laid.

Also Daryl Van Mieghem must surrender his basic place. His place will be taken by El Jebli or Van Overbeek. Since this is the right, Van Overbeek seems to be.
