Match report
Go Ahead Eagles and Sparta Rotterdam drew 3-3 at De Adelaarshorst after the home side fought back twice. Sparta led 3-1 before Go Ahead Eagles pulled level, and Casper Terho's 84th-minute goal kept the visitors ahead for only a few minutes.
Sparta opened the scoring in the 23rd minute when Milan Zonneveld finished from Isaac Achmed Koroma Junior Babadi's assist for 1-0. Go Ahead Eagles levelled on 50 minutes through Mathis Suray, who scored from Dean Ruben James' pass, before Zonneveld turned one into his own net in the 60th minute to make it 2-1. Sparta restored control almost at once, with Lushendry Martes making it 3-1 on 61 minutes from another assist by Junior Babadi. The half-time score was Go Ahead Eagles 0-1 Sparta Rotterdam.
Go Ahead Eagles made a change on 45 minutes and another on 57, then kept pushing after Sparta made two changes together on 62 minutes. Søren Tengstedt reduced the deficit to 3-2 on 75 minutes from Melle Meulensteen's assist, and Terho, who came on in the 62nd minute, made it Sparta's fourth goal on 84 minutes. Go Ahead Eagles then sent on Erik Flataker Hovden for Tengstedt on 85 minutes, but could not find a late equaliser.
