The visitors could not make a fist against an unchained FC Twente, which has been undeniably the best footballing team in the Netherlands in recent weeks. Halfway through the first half, the home crowd, who had come to the stadium completely in red for the occasion, could cheer once again. Attempts by Joshua Brenet and Vlap were stopped by Noppert, but Robin Pröpper hit the rebound, 2-0.
