http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Heracles-Almelo-c39520 with a 2-0 win at Kyocera Stadion on Friday, December 9. Maurice Steijn, the ADO head coach, expressed his joy following his side’s convincing win in front of their home crowd.
The ADO boss revealed that his side played impressively and deservingly emerged victorious.
“Heracles were playing good football and we knew that, so there was only one possibility to achieve a good result that every player fight hard on the pitch and they did not let me down”, Steijn said while talking to the media.
The Heraclieden started the match brightly with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Willie-Overtoom-c36909 the first to threaten the home side’s defence. However, the forward failed to hit the target and the chance went begging.
Although the outfit from Almelo commenced proceedings impressively, they conceded an early goal when Mike van Duinen made an impressive run before beating the visiting goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Remko-Pasveer-c30790.
Moments later, the hosts had an excellent opportunity to double their lead, but Van Duinen’s effort flew wide of the target.
After the forward’s miss, much of the action took place on the centre of the pitch. At half-time interval, the hosts were leading the match 1-0.
ADO commenced the second-half much brighter and put immense pressure on the visitors’ back-line. However, they failed to pierce the Heraclieden defence until the 81st minute, when Lex Immers’ low effort from the edge of the box found the back of the net.
Three minutes later, Immers hit the back of the net yet again. However, the goal was ruled offside by the officials. When the referee blew the final whistle, the score-line read 2-0 in favour of ADO.
The Heraclieden head coach, Peter Bosz, was utterly disappointed following his side’s poor show away from home.
“I only saw one team that wanted to win and that was ADO. We never did that. We limped throughout the match and failed to achieve a good result”, Bosz was quoted as saying to the media.
With the latest win, ADO have climbed up to ninth spot, while dropped points pushed Heracles down to 11th place in the league table.
