Eredivisie 2013-2014. Matchday 33.

Well, this is it then. We're "semi-officially" the Dutch champion of 2014, but we need one last point to make it official (it will, of course, also be official if Feyenoord drop points, they play Cambuur at home).

The game at Almelo's Polman Stadium will start at 14:30 CET.

27 April is King's Day in The Netherlands (feels weird: King's Day... it's been Queen's Day all my life), which means that there will be no official celebration on this day. The official celebration will take place at the ArenA Park on Sunday 04 May, the day after the last league game of the season (NEC at home).

K.

King's Day is on the 26th.

Not to split hairs, but technically speaking we don't even need that one point provided nothing drastic happens to change the goal difference situation. Still, I would want to win it by winning the necessary points in the remaining games, rather than "backing in".

Given what happened in the CL a couple of years ago I put absolutely no faith in goal difference!!!

I thought about the exact same thing as I was writing my post -- but then I thought those kind of things would never (no never) happen with Eredivisie teams. (Well... hardly ever!!)

We will draw at Heracles and beat NEC .Title will be ours in Almelo.

anyone remembers the end of the 2006-2007 season which we lost by a goal difference when psv beat vitesse 5-1 and we "only" managed a 2-0 win over willem II? so yeah, gol difference not to be trusted.

I still get pissed off about that.

Well lets hope we celebrate in 2 hours time

Cillessen, VRhijn,Veltman,Denswil,Boilesen,Klaassen,Blind,Serero,Schone,Sigthorrson,de Sa

It's been a weird week after the events in Rotterdam last weekend. The hard core fans say that that won't happen again and I'm sure the team will want to put in a better display also. So I'm up early over here and trying to get up for today's match.
Heracles is just above the relegation zone and will want to stay that way but their squad is depleted through suspensions and injuries.

Just so we don't take it for granted and just so we don't do anything stupid, and we should come good. Also attack from beginning to end -- no pitty pat -- possession without an end product is like masturbation compared to the real thing.

Anyone got a sopcast link to the NL stream? I'm not having any luck with Fox / eredivisielive today...

Wonderful free kick; the keeper was frozen in his spot!

Romanian stream at 148882

Fantastic freekick by Schone gets us the first one -- now let's keep it.

Stream came back just in time to see the equaliser, so I guess it's like watching from the start.

Think Cilessen was out of position if he couldn't get that, it was about a metre inside the post...

Denswil mess up again -- sigh.

Very mediocre play (what else is new). Only a few players are having a good match and if we are going to have to rely on free kicks to win a match the team is in trouble. didn't get a good look at the replay on the Heracles goal and could not figure out whether it was the wall or Cillesen or both that were at fault. Boilesen and de Sa are playing well. Sigthorrson is terrible again and Klaassen should have made the pass to Schöne so that we would have had a 2nd goal. Looks like we may back into the title here.

2 great free kicks and thats about it . Just 45 mins to go. I lost a stream for a few minutes and wonder if all streams are showing Chelsea vLiverpool. I have wiziwig bein as usual and its in english.

Indeed - not troubling the Heracles defense much, but hey dominating possession....

Just watching this team -- unable to make a decent cross -- unable to make a decent pass -- saved from going down by a goal by the merest of whiskers -- I have to ask myself, even if we finish in first place, does this team deserve to call itself champions?

What a ridiculous match Ajax is playing.

Both teams have what they want with a draw. That shows.

Extremely unenjoyable game though

I wonder if schone hadn't developed into such a great free kick tacker where would we be?
