With video Last year he was voted man of the match in the match against Feyenoord, on Saturday he had to take the ball out of the net six times (6-1). Andries Noppert had a terrible afternoon with Heerenveen visiting De Kuip and expressed his frustration in front of the ESPN camera. “I would prefer to kick someone’s ass, but then I would only harm my team.”

For Noppert it is clear what was lacking at SC Heerenveen. “We don’t have enough bastards in our team,” said the closing post. “I think we start this match very naively. If you go into the match with such an intention, you make it very easy for them. Of course they miss We have a number of boys, but that doesn’t mean you can start like that.”
“We are in a process and we still have to make many steps, but 6-1 is really too much of a good thing,” Noppert continued. “We give away the opportunities far too easily. It is such a big “It’s becoming a playground for Feyenoord. We were just not good enough as a team today, we still have many steps to take.”

Defender Sven van Beek, who was back in the starting line-up for the first time after eight months of injuries, joins his goalkeeper. “We don’t have enough people in the team. Feyenoord’s players could do anything. If no one gives a blow, then you have no business here.”
Last year, Noppert was important for Heerenveen in the match against Feyenoord (0-0). “I hoped to do that again today,” said the goalkeeper. “But I get six of them, that’s way too many. I haven’t been in good shape lately and I tried to turn that around, but if you get so many people around you today, it certainly didn’t work.”

Trainer Van Wonderen was also disappointed in the lack of fighting spirit in his team. “You have to play manly. If you see the difference with Feyenoord, they use their arms, their shoulders, their voice, everything. You need that in these matches. You want to see that when you feel it slipping on all sides. There is too little poison in the team or too few guys who know what it is to play at the highest level,” he explains.
Satisfaction at Feyenoord
Feyenoord coach Arne Slot was pleased with the good play of his team. “If you have the better players, and you know how to build up so well, and find the free man, then it is very difficult for the opponent to get into the match,” he responded with a big smile.
“We had a difficult start to the competition in terms of results, but not in terms of football. The football was already good, so it was only a matter of time before we turned that into goals and wins.”
Mats Wieffer agrees with his coach’s words. “We were really good in the first 25 minutes, although you often notice that when we get ahead quickly, we let go a bit,” he said, referring to the Frisians’ goal.
“But in the end it went really well and it could have been even more. We were patient with the ball and this was a good win, so that gives confidence for Tuesday.”
