Feyenoord made short work of Austrians SK Sturm Graz by winning 6-0. Oussama Idrissi scored the last goal, which was especially interesting for the statistics.
At the end of the match, the Lion of the Atlas was delighted with his first goal in the service of Rotterdam. “The initial phase was a bit difficult, but when we went 1-0 I felt we were in a good game. We played well and scored a lot. We discussed how to play and practiced on it. So it’s nice to see that reflected in the game.“
Idrissi is also optimistic regarding his personal situation following his injury. “I am convinced that footballers are only confident when they are physically fit. I had to train hard. Sometimes your brain wants things your body can’t produce, which is frustrating. Now, I am happy to be able to be useful to the team. I’m glad the coach chose me, because more players knocked on his door.”
In the final quarter, a long-held wish came true for Idrissi: to score at De Kuip, the stadium he watched for years as a youth player for the Rotterdam team. Idrissi signed the 6-0: “Oui, jI’m very happy to have scored my first goal for Feyenoord, and I hope many more will follow.”
