Harm van Veldhoven’s side maintain their quest to participate in the Europa League play-offs, as goals from Sanharib Malki, Mitchell Donald and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ruud-Vormer-c31967 secured a convincing win over John Karelse’s men.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/NAC-Breda-c39983 at Rat Verlegh Stadion on Friday, April 20.
NAC were heading into the game only six points clear of the danger zone and on the back of a hard fought 2-2 stalemate against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 Enschede at De Grolsch Veste on April 14.
The home side commenced proceedings impressively and came close to breaking the deadlock within the opening five minutes of play. However, Roda JC goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robbert-Schilder-c31211 from hitting the back of the net.
Moments later, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jelle-ten-Rouwelaar-c18282, at the other end of the pitch.
However, the early aggression faded away as the match progressed. Both sides failed to create anything of note in the remaining action of the opening half until Anthony Lurling’s effort that went wide of the target moments before the half-time break.
After the break, the visitors came out as the better side and put immense pressure on the home side’s defence, though it was the hosts who created the first goalscoring opportunity of the second-half when Lurling’s strike was cleared off the line by Martijn
Monteyne.
In the 58th minute, the visiting side took the lead through Malki. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mads-Junker-c23039, whose cross inside the box was perfectly headed into the back of the net by the Syrian ace.
Nourdin Boukhari had a decent opportunity to restore parity seven minutes later, but his effort sailed over the crossbar, much to the dismay of the Rats head coach, John Karelse.
De Koempels punished the hosts for their missed opportunity by doubling their lead in the 75th minute. Malki made a decent run before crossing from the right that found http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mitchell-Donald-c26101 in the penalty area. The 23-year-old controlled the ball impressively
before unleashing a fierce shot to make it 2-0.
Moments before the full time whistle, Ruud Vormer completed the impressive looking win. Guss Hupperts set up Vormer inside the box, and the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar midfielder slotted home with ease.
All three points moved Roda JC above http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Utrecht-c39237 at Mandemakers Stadion on Saturday, April 21.
