Kenneth Perez has fully enjoyed the match between AZ and Feyenoord. The game in Alkmaar ended in a 3-3 draw, while earlier on Sunday the game between PSV and Ajax ended in a 2-2 draw. Perez states that the ‘difficulty factor’ in Alkmaar was higher than in Eindhoven.
“You can’t excel as an individual if the team tactics are incorrect. Both teams looked good, they defended compact,” Perez starts his story This was the weekend op ESPN. “For example, Jordy Clasie and Ro-Zangelo Daal played a very good game at AZ. Both teams were constantly moving, that was really enjoyment.”
According to Perez, Feyenoord came ‘very well’ in the game after Sem Steijn’s 1-1. “It seemed like they had been playing together for a long time. I really enjoyed this,” said the analyst. “It was very difficult at this match to create opportunities, because they were both very good. The difficulty factor in this match was higher than with PSV – Ajax.”
Colleague analyst Kees Kwakman can agree with Perez’s words. “At Feyenoord you also see under Robin van Persie that there is a lot of structure. That is really a difference compared to PSV and Ajax,” says Kwakman. “It can be an advantage if players are mixed up, but it can also be detrimental and that you completely lose control. You saw that this afternoon at PSV – Ajax.”
