Van den Brom's comments came after the match, in which Twente won 1-0. The home team was not down a man for long, as Ramiz Zerrouki scored the winning goal just five minutes after Patrik Kristal was given a direct red card by referee Genc Nuza from Kosovo.
Voetbal International reported that Van den Brom acknowledged the frustration of Thun over the red card, but stated that the arbitration from Kosovo made little impression on him. 'It was a different referee than we might be used to, that we saw today. But we as a team dealt well with it,' Van den Brom said in the post-match press conference.
When asked about the difference between this referee and those in the Netherlands, Van den Brom chose not to elaborate, saying 'I must be careful... I must be cautious. You just notice because it's unknown... Ah, just ask another question. I have no desire to talk about referees. We won,' he concluded.
