Groningen finally won their first point
of the season and actually got off the bottom rung with this point against
the Domstad side. Utrecht were wanting to put the memory of
their painful 4-1 UEFA Cup defeat in Warsaw behind them and will have to be content with 5
points from 5 games. The result was a disappointment for trainer Dwight
Lodeweges as the Oosterpark team hit the woodwork 4 times in the match.
After a mediocre first half Groningen finally looked a bit dangerous while
Utrecht were content to try for a counter. Groningen continued to have the
best goal-scoring chances with Pius Ikedia hitting the bar and Joost Broerse's
attempt cleared off the line. Three minutes before time Dejan Curovic hit
the post.
