and believes that his side could have achieved a better result.
The home side started the match impressively and had the opportunity to take the lead in the opening minutes, but Ron Vlaar’s header narrowly missed the target. However, the visitors made no mistake in taking the lead, when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bas-Dost-c7339 hit the bottom left corner
from the spot in the 26th minute following Karim El Ahmadi’s foul on him in the area.

Although Heerenveen played the last 25 minutes with a man down and the last ten minutes with nine against eleven, they still managed to restrict the hosts from finding a winner.
Koeman was disappointed with the result and revealed that his side played impressively, but he was not delighted with the outcome.
“We have basically done everything right except the decisive goal. In the period of eleven against nine, we were not happy with the way the match ended. It is positive that we showed resilience, coming twice from behind is just fine”, Koeman said while talking
to the media in the post-match press conference.
After the stalemate, the Rotterdam giants have dropped down to occupy fifth place in the league table, trailing league leaders http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 Enschede by four points.
