FC Utrecht’s struggles in the Eredivisie continued on Sunday as they suffered a shock home defeat to bottom-placed Almere City, compounding a difficult period for Ivorian striker Sébastien Haller and his teammates.
The loss marked a miserable week for Utrecht, who were also knocked out of the KNVB Cup quarter-finals by Heracles Almelo.
It extended their winless run in the league to four matches, raising concerns over their form and direction.
Recent performances paint a bleak picture, with Utrecht managing only two wins in their last ten Eredivisie outings.
This represents a sharp decline from their previous run of nine victories in ten games, highlighting their current struggles.
Haller, who recently joined the club, has yet to make his mark. The Ivorian forward has featured in five games but is still searching for his first goal.
Against Almere City, he registered three attempts but failed to hit the target, underlining his frustrating start to life at Utrecht.
With their season unraveling, Utrecht will need to find solutions quickly to regain momentum and avoid slipping further down the standings.
