Yesterday saw Tuks take a break from on-the-field match action and take to the stands when they watched the Dutch U19 side play Serbia in a European Champions Qualifier on Thursday Evening.
After a recovery session in the morning, the MultiChoice Diski Challenge Winnners travelled to Harkema for the match.
Before the match the TUKS team had the opportunity to listen to and interact with former Dutch International Striker Pierre Van Hooijdonk.
The 2001/02 Dutch Footballer of the Year reflected on his playing career and gave advice to the players on what it takes to achieve one’s goals. One of his stand-out quotes that resonated with the team was, “Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard”.
TUKS take on Vitesse at 13:00 (CET) on Friday 27th March at the Papendal Sports Complex in their 3rd & final friendly of the tour.
The team will visit the world class sports complex before the kick off of their match.
