Heracles always play good football, says FC Twente boss Co Adriaanse – Dutch Eredivisie news
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Heracles-Almelo-c39520 always plays good football, especially at home. The Tukkers will battle against the Heraclieden at Polman Stadion on Saturday, November 19.
The vastly experienced tactician has stressed that the upcoming derby is a special match for both sides, as it will be played on an artificial pitch.
“It is a derby and we will be playing on artificial turf, which makes it more special. Whether the pitch will affect the game of our side, I do not know. However, there is no denying the fact that Heracles are more used to it”, Adriaanse was quoted as saying
to the media.
The Enschede giants are currently occupying the second spot in the league table, six points adrift of the league leaders, AZ Alkmaar.
On the other hand, the Heraclieden are sitting ninth in the Eredivisie table. The outfit from Almelo have struggled to perform highly thus far this season, winning only four of their 12 matches.
“They played very differently than their usual home games. They were clearly lacking creativity upfront. They have played good home games as well, but it was very surprising against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571”, the 64-year-old tactician added.
Adriaanse then went on to admit that the Heraclieden have some good players in their squad who can make the difference on the pitch on any given day.
“They have players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c39043, Overtoom, Armenteros, Duarte. However, I believe Quansah is their best player”, the veteran coach concluded.
The Enschede giants boss would be looking to trim down the gap on league leaders by securing all three points. However, Adriaanse knows that his side would be facing stern competition from the outfit from Almelo.
Furthermore, backing from home crowd and the artificial pitch would certainly make life further difficult for the Tukkers, who are hungry to take all three points back to Enschede.
