Decisive figure lifts AZ past ADO Den Haag | OneFootball

Ro-Zangelo Daal struck in the 61st minute with a right-footed finish to the bottom left, as AZ beat ADO Den Haag 2-0.

He had been the sharpest threat after the restart, arriving centrally to bury a chance (61.). His constant presence between the lines drew defenders back, and the hosts quickly added a second to tighten their grip (68.).

Daal's influence showed in the numbers: two attempts, six touches in the box and 20 successful final third passes. He also completed two dribbles, repeatedly turning ADO Den Haag towards their own goal and keeping them pinned in their defensive third.

That blend of clean touches and direct running made the difference. With ADO Den Haag's defence retreating, Daal found pockets to receive on the half turn and link play, ensuring AZ controlled the key attacking phases.

AZ sit third after Matchday 1. ADO Den Haag are 16th. AZ visit Utrecht next. ADO Den Haag host Groningen.
