The Boeren boss and skipper expressed their satisfaction following the Eindhoven giants commanding 5-0 win over the Montenegrin club in the first-leg of Europa League play-offs.
In the first-leg of UEFA Europa League play-offs round, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FK-Zeta-c39360 at Stadion Podgorica on Thursday, August 23.
d**k Advocaat, the Boeren head coach, was extremely delighted with his side’s staggering performance on the pitch, but stressed that his side could have scored a goal or two in the opening 45 minutes.
“We have goal scoring prowess but lacked efficiency in front of goal before the break”, Advocaat was quoted as saying to the club’s official website.
The veteran Dutch trainer went on to heap praise on his side’s opponents, though, PSV hardly faced any goalscoring threat throughout the 90 minutes.
“They worked very hard and had some slender chances in the initial stages of the game”, Advocaat concluded.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mark-van-Bommel-c24148, who recently moved to Philips Stadion after his contract at AC Milan expired earlier this summer, was also pleased with the convincing win, but insisted that his side must continue the hard work, if they want to achieve Europa League glory.
“There is always room for improvement; we should have scored more goals. We had plenty of opportunities, but of course we are satisfied with a 5-0 win, bearing in mind the high temperatures and the condition of the pitch”, Van Bommel stated on the club’s
official website.
The former Bayern Munich star, who scored a goal while setting up one more in the 5-0 win, was also pleased with his own performance on the pitch, and was not hesitant to acknowledge Ola Toivonen, who set up the chance for the veteran to hit the back of
the net.
“I’m glad I’ve found the back of the net, but that goal was handed to me on a silver platter by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ola-Toivonen-c28363”, Van Bommel concluded.
PSV will take on FK Zeta in the return leg at Philips Stadion on August 30. After watching their performance in the first-leg, it seems that the Montenegrin side will be facing another tough outing in Eindhoven.
