Marc Miralles production takes off
There were few changes at the top of the men's top scorers list last weekend. All of the top shooters scored, including Bloemendaal's penalty corner cannon Marc Miralles.
Leading scorer Boris Burkhardt scored once on behalf of Amsterdam against Den Bosch (2-1 win), maintaining his lead over his rivals, all of whom also scored once. We zoom in on Bloemendaal midfielder Marc Miralles, who has already scored fourteen times, eleven of which from a penalty corner. No one in this premier league season has scored that many times from that dead-game moment.
Miralles' production gains value if we put it in perspective. Belgian striker Tom Boon was the last Mussen player in the 2014-2015 season to score at least as many goals after the first 11 rounds of play (15). Small side note: Miralles only played ten games with Bloemendaal. Wednesday night the Spaniard will work with his team in the catch-up game with Rotterdam.
With his fourteen goals from ten matches, Miralles has already equaled the number of league goals with which striker Thierry Brinkman became Bloemendaal's top scorer last season. Moreover, he has already scored more this league than in the whole of last season (his debut season for Bloemendaal). Then he came to twelve goals in the Hoofdklasse.
