Sparta Rotterdam and FC Utrecht shared six goals in a 3-3 draw in the Eredivisie. The match swung back and forth, with Utrecht twice taking the lead and Sparta twice equalising before Nick Verschuren's 90th-minute strike secured the point.
Matisse Didden opened the scoring for Utrecht from Yoann Cathline's assist, and Marvin Young levelled for Sparta just before the break. Artem Stepanov restored Utrecht's lead immediately after the restart, only for Milan Zonneveld to equalise again. Adrian Blake put Utrecht back in front, but Verschuren's late goal earned Sparta a share of the points.
Utrecht edged the shot count 16-13 and had the higher expected goals (1.93 to 1.70), while Sparta enjoyed 56% possession. Yet both sides took four shots on target and each goalkeeper made a single save, reflecting how even the contest was.
