“I’m glad Chris (De Graaf, the trainer, ed.) Dared it,” says Van de Beek after the game, in which he was replaced by Jan van Diermen at halftime. “It’s the first time. I’m relieved that it went reasonably well.” Still, he does not count on being back in the starting line-up in the derby against neighbor and arch-rival IJsselmeervogels on Saturday. “Nick Verhagen couldn’t play today, that’s why I played. Nick will be back next week, so I just expect him to play. I can’t play a full game yet because I’m not physically capable of that yet.”
