JAKARTA - VVV goalkeeper Venlo Delano van Crooy considers Ajax Amsterdam goalkeeper Andre Onana to disrespect his team due to VVV's big defeat from the capital team.

VVV were beaten by guests by Ajax with a score of 0-13 in the sixth round match of the Dutch League last Saturday. It was the biggest victory in the history of the Dutch League.

After the match Onana was seen trying to cheer up Van Crooy, but according to Van Crooy the Cameroon goalkeeper was implicitly mocking him.

"Yes, when you heard that he actually wanted to take a penalty, I thought," Is that necessary? You don't take penalties against other goalkeepers if you respect that. That would be embarrassing, "De Crooy told Langs de Lijn.

The video footage caught a smiling Onana when VVV was awarded a penalty in the 74th minute for Vito van Crooij's foul on Sean Klaiber. At that time Ajax had led 9-0.

Match commentators joked that Onana should have taken the penalty kick. But in fact, veteran striker Klaas jan Huntelaar was the executioner and he succeeded.

Van Crooy admits he cannot describe the appearance of his team, which now has a very embarrassing record.

"It can't be explained. You don't feel anything, I think that's a bad thing. You are mentally broken, you want to leave. Everyone is nice, but you don't want to wait for other people's pity," he said.

Personally, Van Crooy didn't perform very badly. In total he recorded ten saves, but indeed the VVV team only recorded three shots compared to the 45 shots that Ajax had.

"I will leave it to the experts. I do not see that game again," he concluded.

The result left VVV stuck in 14th place in the standings with five points, minus 13 goals. They are only two points ahead of the relegation zone.
