Last week, the Mexican association and some Mexican clubs visited the Netherlands. During the visit, valuable knowledge was exchanged and a friendly game was played between Jong Oranje and Jong Mexico.
The Mexicans came to the Netherlands to share knowledge at top level. For the KNVB, Lennard van Ruiven (Director of Football Development) and Tijn Kruize (Head of National Team Organisation) were closely involved. The visit was considered successful from both sides.
The themes that were central to the visit were the organisation of Dutch football, the technical development of youth teams and the talent recognition from amateur football and the corresponding advancement to the national teams.
On Thursday evening, a practice match was played at the Asito Stadion in Almelo between the young national team and their peers from Mexico. Michael Reiziger's team eventually won the game 1-0 thanks to a goal by debutant Maxim Dekker.
The visit of the FMF (Federación Mexicana de Fútbol) fits in with the KNVB's international strategy. As one of the original founding members of FIFA, the federation feels responsible for continuing to innovate and develop football. This includes sharing its vision and knowledge with other football associations. Moreover, the visit is seen as valuable because the KNVB also learns from its international colleagues.
