The Arnhem outfit boss expressed disappointment with the 1-0 loss, and insisted that his side never deserved to secure even a solitary point.
On Friday February 24, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitesse-c40905 head coach, John van den Brom, expressed his disappointment and asserted that his troops failed to perform at their best.
Both sides started the match in a sloppy manner and failed to offer an attacking threat in the opening half until the 37th minute. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Piet-Velthuizen-c30016. However, Krisztian Nemeth pounced
on the loose ball and powered his shot into the bottom right corner to give the home side a 1-0 lead.
Four minutes later, the visitors had a good opportunity to level the score-line when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Renato-Ibarra-c30834 went one-on-one with the hosts’ goalkeeper, Jeroen Zoet. However, his effort took a deflection off onrushing Zoet and crashed on to the crossbar.
After conceding a goal in the opening half, Vitesse were expected to press the home side harder in the second-half. However, neither of the two sides created any clear goalscoring opportunities until the full time whistle and the game ended in a 1-0 win
for RKC.
Van Den Brom asserted that his side staged a far from pleasing show in the second-half.
“The second-half was too dramatic from our side. The way we were playing, we even had no right to bag a solitary point. Our performances in the recent weeks concern me the most. We must change our attitude if we are to finish in the top half of the Eredivisie
table”, Van den Brom was quoted as saying to Voetbal International.
Vitesse are currently placed eighth in the league table, but they could well drop down to 10th spot at the end of this weekend’s action.
The outfit from Arnhem will lock horns against De Graafschap in their next Eredivisie encounter at GelreDome Stadion on Sunday, March 4. Van den Brom would be hoping that his side performs at its best and secure maximum points at home.
