Fortuna Sittard has had an excellent start to the new Eredivisie season. After one and a half rounds, the Limburg club is in second place, which created satisfied faces in the green part of the stadium. The home match against SC Cambuur ended in a 3-1 victory, but that was not without the necessary caveats.
Midfielder Philip Brittijn opened the score in the sixth minute with a spot-on shot and shortly afterwards striker Lequincio Zeefuik doubled the margin. Despite the early lead, it remained exciting, as Cambuur had opportunities to come alongside during the course of the match. Cambuur's tying goal put full pressure on Fortuna. Yet it was Shiloh 't Zand who provided relief in the final phase by scoring the 3-1.
Afterwards there is appropriate euphoria among the selection. “It is only the second game, but it is extremely important to win this home game,” said Brittijn. The trainer also emphasized the importance of this victory, especially after a top victory: “Winning against a top club is nice, but you also have to show it in these types of matches.” The players are satisfied, but know that they still have a lot to improve. "We make it unnecessarily difficult for ourselves and leave the opponent in the match for too long, we have to work on that," Brittijn admits honestly.
On the Cambuur side, trainer Johan Plat expressed his frustration after a questionable moment. Just before Fortuna's third goal, goalkeeper Mattijs Branderhorst made contact with Cambuur striker Nicolas Binder. Plat believed that his team should have received a justified penalty, which the referee did not award. "I'm angry. This was just a penalty," said the coach.
Despite the defeat, Plat saw plenty of positive points for his team: "We took revenge for last week and are going home with a good feeling, although we had hoped for more." Midfielder Rafik El Arguioui emphasized that the game was more attacking and that this approach can be built on, although finishingopportunities are a point of attention.
For Fortuna Sittard, this strong start to the season gives hope, but the realization is that there is still a long way to go. The coming weeks will show whether the team can maintain its high starting position and structurally participate in the left-hand row of the Eredivisie.

With a focus on improvement, Fortuna Sittard will prepare for the upcoming matches in the Eredivisie. The players and staff are aware of the need not to leave the opponent in the match for too long, as they experienced against Cambuur.
