Live: sc Heerenveen – AZ 2-0
2.30 pm: Telstar – FC Utrecht
Jacob Trenskow plants the ball on the crossbar after a wonderful action by Maxence Rivera, who passes several AZ players. AZ is really having a hard time right now.
Things are going fast now. Former AZ player Joris van Overeem, of all people, hits Heerenveen’s second. Big hit for the Alkmaarders just before half time.
AZ is increasingly coming into the match and taking over the initiative. Yet the Frisians are 1-0. Luuk Brouwers passes to Dylan Vente and he slides the ball in in front of an empty goal.
Elijah Dijkstra picks up the ball well and immediately gives a through ball to Troy Parrott. Unfortunately for AZ, he is not (yet) as sharp as in Ireland and his attempt via Bernt Klaverboer goes wide.
Moments later, a cross from Weslley Patati just misses Parrott’s head. AZ becomes slightly stronger in this phase.
Heerenveen comes out dangerous again. The AZ defense shoots, but is lucky that the ball goes past the goal via Mees de Wit. The people of Alkmaar do not seem awake yet.
A fireworks bomb goes off from the AZ supporters’ box. The crowd is startled for a moment, but the referee Allard Lindhout allows play to continue. The smoke also dissipates quickly.
Heerenveen gets an imposed chance twice. First Maas Willemsen hits hard and then the rebound is also dangerous. Jeroen Zoet is sharp in both cases and can save. The goalkeeper replaces the injured Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro.
A little later the danger comes again from the Frisians. A heel behind Dylan Vente’s standing leg just rolls past the post. Lucky for AZ.
