Dutch Cup: Heerenveen eliminate Feyenoord

While Feyenoord are trying to survive in the Dutch Eredivisie, the Rotterdam outfit couldn’t prevent being eliminated 0-3 by SC Heerenveen.

Only days after losing 3-1 to Heerenveen in the league, Feyenoord again stood no chance against the Frisiand. The hosts did try, but failed precision up front.

Swedish forward Viktor Elm opened the score on 37 minutes and added another in the 73rd. The third and final goal came from Roy Beerens with eight minutes left.

It is the first time since 2001 that the traditional top three teams, Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord, are all knocked out ahead of the tournament’s quarter final stage.
