(GSM) – Feyenoord came back from behind to beat FC Twente 2-1 in the semi finals of the Dutch Cup and advance to a possible final clash with arch rivals Ajax.

League leaders Twente were the better side in the first half and went ahead through Bryan Ruiz in the 42nd minute.

But Feyenoord delivered a much better performance in the second half with Giovanni van Bronckhorst levelling the score eight minutes after the break.

And with six minutes left in regular time, veteran striker Roy Makaay allowed De Kuip stadium to explode as he netted the winner.

In the final, Feyenoord are most likely to face bitter rivals Ajax. This Thursday, the Amsterdam outfit play their semi final away to first division side Go Ahead Eagles.
