De Koempels boss expressed contentment following the 3-3 draw against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/ADO-Den-Haag-c38221, but insisted that his troops failed to play to their potential.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roda-JC-c40375 Kerkrade came from behind to record a 3-3 stalemate against ADO Den Haag in their opening Eredivisie encounter of 2012 at Kyocera Stadion on Friday, January 20.
De Koempels head coach, Harm van Veldhoven, expressed contentment after his side came from behind to secure a lone point at the end. However, he insisted that his troops failed to perform to their full potential.
“When you make a comeback thrice, it certainly deserves a compliment. However, after we scored the third, we could have scored another, but it did not happen. We played well for most part of the match. After the break, we did much better. The audience was
superb throughout the match, and I guess they were the winner in the end”, Veldhoven said while talking to journalists.
ADO started the match aggressively in front of their home crowd and took the lead in the third minute. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wesley-c36794 Verhoek’s sublime pass opened up the home side’s defence for John Verhoek, who neatly finished the ball into the back of the net.
However, Mads Junker's powered effort found the back of the net to equalise the score-line in the 15th minute. The home side continued to mount pressure on the visitors after conceding the equaliser and they re-established their one-goal lead
nine minutes later through Charlton Vicento.
The hosts failed yet again to hold on to their slim lead, as Sanharib Malki’s strike restored parity minutes after the break. ADO went ahead yet again when Vicento scored his second of the evening in the 58th minute. However, Malki levelled the
score-line following a neat finish eight minutes before the full time whistle.
At the end of the 90 minutes, both sides shared the spoils with the score-line reading 3-3.
Roda JC remain unmoved at the ninth spot in the league table while ADO occupy the 10th spot in the Eredivisie table. De Koempels will lock horns against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/NEC-c40018 Nijmegen in their next league encounters.
