About mykynes

I visited 3 grounds on the Faroe Islands as well but cannot add them, Gundadalur in Tórshavn, Svangaskarð in Toftir and Við Margáir in Eiði.

First Game

Vitesse - FC Twente 4-1 (1-0, wonderful freekick by Pierre van Hooijdonk)

Best Game

Netherlands U21 - Serbia U21 4-1 (European Championship Under 21 Final at Euroborg, Groningen, The Netherlands).

Worst Game

FC Zwolle - Fortuna Sittard 1-0 (06-04-2007)

Problem for Gelredome is, that it's not exactly a football-only stadium. Home-team Vitesse doesn't perform very well and that's a downer for the atmosphere. But all in all, the ground is both suitable for footballmatches and for events (concerts) the stadium is really awesome. The facilities are very modern and good as well. That combination makes it a great stadium.

I really don't like tracks around the field, makes the public sit too far away from the action.
