Struggled a lot against Groningen, but found the long-awaited goal in the 88th minute (1-0) and stayed on top and +5 from second-placed Alkmaar Feyenoord.
Slot Arne’s team failed to break down the visitors’ defense in the first half, however, in the 52nd minute and with the dismissal of Mata with second yellow card, he took more yards on the pitch and pushed hard to find the coveted goal. The home team may have won one corner after another and created many chances in front of the Verips goal, but they failed to threaten the Dutch goalkeeper.
All this until the 88th minute, when Hanko found him nicely Idrisi and he, with a wonderful shot, beat the goalkeeper of Groningen, “writing” 1-0, which was also the final result.
