Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. NEC get us underway at de Kuip.
- 5' It looks surprising NEC does not make any changes. Ilias Bronkhorst has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' Feyenoord Rotterdam have won 629 goals from 322 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
