The return of Justin Bijlow under the bar at Feyenoord was not a success on Wednesday, according to René van der Gijp a day later. Today Inside.
In the second round of the Eurojackpot KNVB Cup, Feyenoord lost 2-3 at home to SC Heerenveen. Bijlow, who played his first official match since January 29, did not leave a good impression after conceding two goals.
Dylan Vente’s opening goal was headed quite easily over the Rotterdam goalie. According to the critical Gibe Bijlow could also have prevented Maxence Rivera’s goal.
“That Feyenoord goalkeeper thinks he can play football very well. Bijlow must be able to play football quite well, but he simply hit a fellow player who is covered through the ashes. You shouldn’t do that, man,” said Van der Gijp.
Johan Derksen is also not a fan of this trend in modern football. “When you build up backwards, you still hold your breath…”
“It is a miracle that he was not injured,” Derksen mentions a bright spot in Bijlow’s return.
Feyenoord ends the year on Sunday with a home match against FC Twente. In the FriendsLoterij Eredivisie, coach Robin van Persie’s team is in second place.
