Bas Dost’s brace and goals from Darryl Janmaat and Gerald Sibon crushed De Koempels' hopes of securing three points.
On match-day 20, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roda-JC-c40375 Kerkrade at Abe Lenstra Stadion on Friday, February 3. Both sides played impressive football, but the hosts secured all three points at the end of 90 minutes.
The home side started the match aggressively in freezing cold conditions and it took them only five minutes to break the deadlock through http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bas-Dost-c7339.
De Koempels goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pawel-Kieszek-c29562, tried to find one of his midfielders with a quick throw, but the ball went straight to Filip Djuricic, who found Dost with a simple pass.
That lead, however, didn't stay for long as parity was restored soon after. Adil Ramzi’s powered effort hit the crossbar and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sanharib-Malki-c32495 headed in the rebound to malke it 1-1.
In the 17th minute, the home side restored their one-goal lead through Darryl Janmaat. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luciano-c22574 Narsingh made a brilliant run on the right flank before passing the ball to the 22-year-old defender, who made no mistake in hitting the back of the
net.
De Koempels continued to mount pressure and remained in the hunt for an equaliser and were rewarded for their efforts in the 44th minute. Mitchell Donald's cross picked out Malki in the box, who netted the ball in style from four yards to make
it 2-2.
The visiting side came out as the better unit after the half-time break, and staged an impressive show on the pitch. Six minutes into the second-half, De Koempels took a deserving lead when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Davy-De-Beule-c10699 headed Adil Ramzi’s inch perfect cross into the back
of the net.
However, the hosts did not want to end proceedings in front of their home crowd without a fight and scored the equaliser in the 63rd minute. Narsingh’s free-kick found http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerald-Sibon-c14658 in the box, who headed home to make it 3-3.
Seven minutes later, Dost scored his second of the evening to seal the game 4-3. Although Roda pressed hard for the equaliser in the remaining twenty minutes, they failed to score and Heerenveen secured all three points at the full time whistle.
