Schreuders again King of the Match after a duel with FC Utrecht

FC Groningen’s Jorg Schreuders Crowned King of the Match – Again!

Well, well, well! If it isn’t Jorg Schreuders, the indisputable King of the Match, reigning supreme for the second consecutive time after the thrilling encounter against FC Utrecht on Sunday. That’s right, folks! While most of us are still trying to figure out what we did last weekend, this guy’s busy collecting crowns like they’re Pokémon cards.

For those of you who missed it—either because you were too busy binge-watching that new series or, heaven forbid, actually *going outside*—the King of the Match title is awarded following each competition game. So, if you’re Dave from IT, and your wild Saturday night included six cans of lager and a match recap on your phone, you might want to rethink your choices because Jorg is out there making moves!

How Does One Become a King?

The voting system is simple yet brilliant! You see, after every game, supporters get to cast their votes, and if you’re a home fan, you find out who the King is faster than Netflix promises to deliver your next guilty pleasure. But beware! If you vote for someone who’s had one too many bad hair days during the season and ends up transferring to another club, their votes vanish quicker than your motivation on a Monday morning.

Now, let’s have a good chat about the competition. Jorg “The King” Schreuders snagged that glorious three-point bonus for his royal performance, while Wouter Prins and Marco Rente took home two and one point respectively. Quite the family affair over at FC Groningen! Your family has a game night? They have a King Of The Match competition! There’s a title for every uncle who thinks he’s the reigning champion of Monopoly.

The Road to Player of the Year

Speaking of titles, the stakes will get higher as we draw closer to the end of the season. The ultimate crown, “Player of the Year,” is up for grabs! The current standings see Etienne Vaessen leading the pack with 17 points, proving that the real competition for Jorg is not just in the royal arena, but also within his own ranks. I mean, who knew being a Groningen player could feel like being in a gladiator-style reality show?

As it stands, Jorg Schreuders is hot on Vaessen’s heels with 14 points. Seriously, what’s the motivation? A lifetime supply of Dutch cheese? Bragging rights at team karaoke? Whatever the prize is, these lads are putting in the effort. Remember, kids, behind every magical moment lies a sea of sweat, strategy, and possibly the occasional tantrum over who’s turn it is to do the dishes!

Final Whistle & Match Voting

And just to make it even more exciting, home games wrap up with an instant King announcement post-final whistle, while away warriors have to wait till the weekend concludes to vote. What a treat! Who doesn’t love to build suspense while the players gather around to find out if they’re crowned or simply sent packing like last week’s leftovers?

The Current Royal Lineup

So, how do the current standings shape up?

  • 1. Etienne Vaessen – 17 points
  • 2. Jorg Schreuders – 14 points
  • 3. Leandro Bacuna – 10 points
  • 4. Wouter Prins – 3 points
  • 5-11. A gaggle of players tied with 1 or 2 points

To put this into perspective, if there’s a game with fewer points than a bad sitcom, we might need to reconsider our voting practices! Let’s hope the boys in green keep pushing the boundaries and scoring not just on the field but in our hearts.

Conclusion

So, hats off to Jorg Schreuders for his splendid performance and major shout-out to all his supporters who give him the votes! Is he destined to be crowned Player of the Year? Or will someone read the script and swoop in at the last moment? One thing’s for sure—and that is, we’re all in for an entertaining season! Keep your eyes peeled and your remote handy for those match highlights—let’s see if the King can keep his crown!
