SC Heerenveen beat FC Twente 1-0 in the Eredivisie, snatching the points despite being second best for long spells. Luca Oyen's 52nd-minute goal proved decisive. Heerenveen had only 46% possession and seven shots to Twente's 19, yet took their chance when it mattered.
The game was goalless until the 52nd minute, when Luca Oyen finished after Jacob Trenskow's assist to make it 1-0.

Dirk Proper was booked in the 75th minute, with Luca Oyen and Daan Rots both booked in the 90th.
