Feyenoord vs AZ Alkmaar
Match Report
A 1-1 draw at De Kuip on Sunday was all Feyenoord needed to seal second place in the Eredivisie and secure Champions League football for next season — turning a shared point into cause for celebration in Rotterdam.
AZ Alkmaar took the lead in the 16th minute when Troy Parrott fired home a right-footed finish, set up by Jordy Clasie, a former Feyenoord midfield favourite. The hosts levelled nine minutes into the second half through Anis Hadj Moussa, who finished from a pass by Tobias van den Elshout. The afternoon had its edge: Thijs Kraaijeveld picked up a second yellow card for a tactical foul, and AZ boss Lee-Roy Echteld was himself booked on the touchline for dissent.
The point confirms Feyenoord's Champions League berth heading into the final weeks of the season. AZ leave Rotterdam with a draw but will regret failing to hold their first-half lead.
