Scouting Report: Emmanuel van de Blaak by Raphaël Bejczy (@ScoutEredivisie) Youth career: RKVV JEKA, Willem II, PSV Eindhoven (since 2020) Player’s agent: Louis Laros (Soccer Vision) – Decision making with the ball Very Strong – Likes to play the ball straight into the feet of his teammates – Often skips a line for a pass through – Always tries to find a footballing solution when under pressure and takes risks Eerste Divisie 2021/2022: 7 games/0 goals (Jong PSV) His tackles and ball recoveries are a pleasure to watch. He seems to have a natural instinct of when and how to interrupt to win the ball back. Van de Blaak is a type of defender that will always try to find a footballing solution to every situation and likes to take risks in his style of play. He also gives a lot of good straight passes that skip a line on the pitch. It’s a joy to see the confidence he has on the ball. ‘’I’m a fast central defender with tight passing. I’m also a leader on the pitch. I wouldn’t consider myself as a ‘boring defender’. I’m a modern defender that likes to dribble into the midfield.’’ Your email address will not be published.

Rodri has been crowned the 2024 Ballon d'Or winner, but the decision has continued to raise dust, especially with Real Madrid faithful who feel Vinicius was robbed. Vinicius Junior snubbed the Ballon d'Or ceremony after it was leaked that Spain and Manchester City's Rodri would win the award. Good decision? Among the current generation of soccer players, three names consistently rise to the top when it comes to dribbling: Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Vinicius Jr., as each possesses a unique style that leaves the opponents bamboozled and the spectators wowed.

Update, 6:30 p.m.: Power was restored for most affected people by about 5:30 p.m., Stedin said in an update. The duration of the outage was approximately 90 minutes. The cause of the disruption has not been determined. A power outage affecting the city center and other parts of The Hague left tens of thousands of people without electricity at the end of Tuesday afternoon. There were many problems on the city’s public transport network as a result, creating a difficult rush hour situation for many even though trains were largely running on time. "Please only call the emergency services for real emergencies," local authorities wrote on citizen alert system Burgernet just before 4:30 p.m. A total of 45,200 households and businesses were without power, according to grid operator Stedin. Aside from the city center, people reported problems in the coastal areas of Duindorp and Scheveningen, as well as the Archipelbuurt, Kompasbuurt, and other nearby neighborhoods. Stedin said it was hoping to have the issue resolved between 6:45 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. “Our technicians are on their way to determine the cause and resolve the outage as quickly as possible,” the company said on social media. First responders were answering multiple calls of people trapped in elevators, records show. Several national government buildings were evacuated because of the electricity outage. Among them are the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment, the Ministry of Health Welfare and Sport, and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. But with the trouble extending through the end of the afternoon, the expectation is that commuters trying to get home will continue to have difficulty doing so. Public transport system HTM reported cancellations, delays and detours on each of the city’s tram routes. "I was just driving and suddenly poof! Power gone," one tram operator in The Hague told Omroep West. "Then the job is to come to a halt as safely as possible by letting the tram roll as far as possible and then letting the passengers out. And now we have to wait until we have power again, that's all we can do," he said. HTM said it was unlikely for normal service to be restored before 5:30 p.m., but disrupted service could be extended by at least an hour. The Haaglanden security office declared a Grip 2 regional emergency because of the incident. This ensured that a Regional Operational Team would be set up to coordinate the emergency response from a central location. They can then provide advice, and help collect and disseminate information as needed. They are also responsible for briefing the mayor’s office. © 2012-2025, NL Times, All rights reserved.

Mullins' side performed well against tough opposition and completed a second half comeback Fulham started the match the brighter of the two sides and had their first sight of goal just four minutes in after Oliver Gofford had an effort go over following good play from Terrell Works PSV were quick to respond with a chance of their own when Couhaib Driouech found himself with time and space behind the Fulham defence but his lobbed effort wasn't of any concern to Alex Borto in goal The visitors took the lead on 17 minutes through Emir Bars who finished off a smart team move with intricate build-up play from Jevon Simons on the edge of the box Jonathan Esenga went close to scoring an equaliser ten minutes later Joe Ndala won a penalty for PSV with clever footwork seeing him be tripped but Driouech powered the spot kick back off the crossbar on 34 minutes Bars doubled PSV's lead on the stroke of half-time with a cool finish after a deft looped pass behind the defence from Isaac Babadi The visitors extended their lead on 71 minutes with Marcus Younis slotting home from close range following a quick counter-attack Fulham pulled two back in the space of 60 seconds - first

I didn't have a choice," Vallieres Mill said. Her ankle was a little swollen but she thinks it will be fine for the start of stage 6 figure out how to get out and back to the race I was looking around to see what was stuck and how to get out without hurting each other." She immediately communicated with her directors across the team radio channel to notify them of who crashed I have no idea how I got my foot stuck in the wheel It took a while because it was really stuck and we had to take off the wheel to get my foot out My foot will feel OK tomorrow – I got lucky." She was indeed lucky as several riders required medical attention. Emma Norsgaard (Movistar) sustained trauma to her head shoulder and cervical vertebra and was transported to the Epinal hospital for evaluation Also injured in the crashes were Coralie Demay (St Michel-Auber93) Anais Morichon and Yuliia Biriukova (Arkéa Pro Cycling Team) Gladys Verhulst and Marjolein Van 't Geloof (Le Col-Wahoo) Olivia Baril (Valcar Travel & Service) Rotem Gafinovitz (Roland Cogeas Edelweiss) "I have some stitches in my elbow but I don't have pain so it could have been better but..." Van den Broek Blaak told Cyclingnews The rider had visible injuries on her elbow and arm that required medical attention from the in-race doctor I went to the medical car because I could see that then it didn't stop bleeding and they already helped me at the team car with a towel and a hairband from Anna [van der Breggen] he said you need to come back after the race for stitches the road captain for SD Worx who normally provides guidance to the team from within the peloton handled the crash with characteristic composure "I'm always really calm and today we had good communication on the radio and it was super boring and with nothing to do," said Van den Broek Blaak also stressed the importance of staying calm during a crash in order to assess the situation and better help the riders He also explained from a director's perspective how the team handles a crash and the steps taken to get the riders back in the race or the medical attention they might need "We were already near the front in the cars so we could see it It was a long straight road and the speed was not super high but if one  goes down it seemed to be in the middle of the peloton. They are all sitting there and it's a long day and the heat," he told Cyclingnews "The mechanic is always the first staff member at the crash If someone crashed and needs to see a doctor we can wait with the wheels and bikes always in a crash there is only one mechanic and two or three riders who need assistance World Champion Elisa Balsamo needed a bike change but otherwise the team didn't have any riders involved it's like the Tour de France," said Trek-Segafredo head director Ina Teutenberg I was relieved," she said of the minimal involvement of riders from her team "I don't know how bad the injuries are but it's nice not to see anyone [from Trek-Segafredo] on the ground there but sometimes there's just nothing you can do." Vallieres Mill was upset to learn of Norsgaard's injuries with the Movistar rider the only rider to record a DNF because of the crash on stage 5 but was grateful that there weren't more bad injuries as well given the number of riders involved.  "I'm happy that there weren't too many riders who got hurt Kirsten has a background in Kinesiology and Health Science She has been involved in cycling from the community and grassroots level to professional cycling's biggest races She began her sports journalism career with Cyclingnews as a North American Correspondent in 2006 Kirsten became Women's Editor – overseeing the content strategy race coverage and growth of women's professional cycling – before becoming Deputy Editor in 2023 The Keukenhof will open its doors on Thursday for the 2023 season. “The most beautiful spring park in the world is open for eight weeks,” Keukenhof said in a press release. Last year, the famous flower park in Lisse, Zuid-Holland, attracted over 1.1 million visitors visitors can wander along the 15 kilometers of footpaths in the Keukenhof and admire the 7 million bulb flowers in over 1,600 varieties The bulbs - supplied by 100 flower bulb growers and exporters - were planted in the autumn of last year to have them blooming and ready for visitors in the spring Keukenhof boasts over 2,500 trees of 100 different species and a collection of approximately 100 artworks made by various artworks The Keukenhof’s opening weekend this year will be cloudy and wet but relatively mild According to the meteorological institute KNMI there is an 80 or 90 percent chance for rain every day this week until at least Sunday In 2019, before the coronavirus pandemic hit the Netherlands and made it impossible for the garden to open for two years The park hopes to hit those visitor numbers again this year Isaac Babadi scored early for Young PSV after a mistake in Manchester United's defense The pledges could not push forward after that A foul in the penalty area earned the English a penalty kick The winner of the 2022 tournament is thus well on its way to advancing In the first round they defeated Liverpool FC (4-0) In the second round there was no winner in the duel with Fulham FC one of last season's regular goalkeepers has stayed on who was under the crossbar for eighteen games last season he will also account for some of the matches this season Tijn Smolenaars (18) made the move from O18 and Roy Steur came over from Bayer Leverkusen (18).Defense With the departures of Fedde Leysen Livano Comenencia and previously Mees Kreekels a new group of defenders flowed through to the pledges this summer Reda El Meliani (18) and Muhlis Dagasan (19) have collectively played only nineteen matches for Young PSV where they became national champions last year they can build on the experience of Emmanuel van de Blaak (18) who is starting his third season with Young PSV And also Koen Jansen (19) and Matteo Dams (19) have been around for a while Mohamed Nassoh (20) is one of the leaders of this team The attacking midfielder already joined the A-selection during the preparations Not surprising given the fact that in 2022-2023 he played 35 matches in action for Young PSV he was directly involved in fourteen goals Tim van den Heuvel (18) and Tygo Land (17) are all a regular part of Young PSV for the first time Some of them have already trained with the main squad and Tygo even made his Eredivisie debut.Attack Both Jason van Duiven and Isaac Babadi have been permanent members of PSV 1 since this season but it does mean that Young PSV loses two regulars That is why new players are also making their appearance up front Julian Kwaaitaal (18) played in the preparation with PSV 1 Jamal Gonzaga (18) and Jesper Uneken (19) are permanent members of the selection for the first time Jesper thus follows somewhat in the footsteps of his father who was the coach of the team from 2019 to 2021.StaffWith the departure of Adil Ramzi there is also a new face in front of the group this season together with assistants Theo Lucius and Wilfred Bouma you only get something out of that if you also win the final match Dante Sealy had read that memo; he put Young PSV ahead in the first half moments later the American saw how Scott Banks nullified his goal with a rock-hard shot Jason van Duiven changed that score in the extension So the man of fifteen goals in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie Simon Colyn then put his signature on the match the match and thus the tournament was within reach Captain Mathijs Tielemans was given the honorable task of holding the cup in the air sealing the final victory in the Premier League International Cup For five players the final of the Premier League International Cup was their last game for PSV A short but large power outage affected thousands of homes in The Hague on Friday morning.
