The match was scheduled for next Saturday afternoon at half past two. Because safety around the match may not be guaranteed, the match has been cancelled. FC Volendam writes this on the website.
On Sunday, the first team of FC Volendam will play against Ajax. “The coincidence of the match on Saturday against Feyenoord and on Sunday against Ajax is expected to cause possible safety problems,” the press release said.
“We expect a larger influx of Feyenoord audiences at the Jong Volendam match,” explains Leendert Klein of the municipality of Edam-Volendam. A large influx of Ajax players is expected for the Volendam and Ajax match the following day. “We want to prevent those two groups from interbreeding.”
A new date for the match is being sought in consultation with Feyenoord and the KNVB.
