Breda halted a three match losing streak with a convincing 6-1 win over Heracles on Wednesday.
And the City boys were central to the victory, with Angelino delivering a teasing cross for Rai Vloet’s opener, before Thierry Ambrose reacted quickest to a ball pinballing around the penalty area to crash home.
The Frenchman was also on hand to set up Breda’s sixth goal, but it was Manu Garcia who stole the show to net the game’s fourth goal.
Picking the ball up inside his own half, he surged into the Heracles area and left a trail of defenders in his wake before poking the ball home.
