Before the match it became clear that supporters of both clubs had brought fireworks. Jurgen Streppel, trainer of Roda JC, spoke to ESPN expressed all his concerns about the tense atmosphere. “Let’s keep it within bounds. If I’m honest, I’m holding out for it. What’s happening there, it can’t really happen. People are almost in front of our dressing room and there is one attendant. Yes, guys… Let’s hope it goes well,” he said.
And in Maastricht they again (!) have hundreds of ‘supporters’ standing along the railing who are allowed to spit on players, throw fireworks into the away section and enter the field. And soon the guests have done it again. Incredible. #mvvROD pic.twitter.com/qMNdJGfSlY
