Driessen, a journalist for De Telegraaf, believes Van Meenen made a poor impression on the TV show. He claims Van Meenen defended referees by going into great detail about their mistakes, but never gave the correct answer. Driessen specifically mentioned a red card that Van Meenen said was not a scoring chance for Jorthy Mokio, who was two metres in front of the goal. Driessen also believes that Armando Obispo should have been sent off with two yellow cards in the PSV – sc Heerenveen match. Van Meenen's comments on this incident were seen as particularly questionable, as he claimed the player was not in a scoring position.
