Go Ahead Eagles vs FC Groningen

Go Ahead Eagles and Groningen shared the points at De Adelaarshorst after a match the hosts dominated territorially but couldn't quite win, finishing 1-1. Despite piling on shots and possession all evening, Go Ahead found Groningen's defense stubborn until deep into the second half. Groningen struck first against the run of play in the 32nd minute, Brynjólfur Willumsson curling a fierce effort from the edge of the box past the keeper. Go Ahead pushed for an equalizer and got it in the 79th minute, as Søren Tengstedt combined in a slick one-two with Stefán Sigurðarson before drilling a shot into the top corner. Sigurðarson then spurned a huge chance to complete the turnaround, and Groningen's Yassir Salah Rahmouni picked up a yellow card in the 82nd minute as the visitors held on. A point apiece keeps both sides close together in the table, with Go Ahead Eagles left to rue wasted chances against a Groningen side that made the most of its few opportunities.
