Heracles started well,
creating more chances in front of goal than the home-side and were unlucky
not to haved the score in theng minutes of the game via Platvoet
and Yuri Rose. However, it was Sparta who went ahead in the 8th minute via
their topscorer Danny Koevermans, finishing off a Lorenzo Rimkus shot that
ricocheted off the post and into the path of Koevermans. A few minutes
before the break Heracles should have made it 0-2 but Berry Hoogeveen
somehow managed to miss from 3 meters, his shot hitting the post.
3 minutes after the break John Stegeman levelled for the visitors and
another 3 minutes later Thijs Sluiter made it 1-2 for Heracles. In the 77th
minute Koevermans was once again on target, levelling the score with his 6th
goal of the season. Unfortunately for Sparta, Heracles were not deterred by
the equalizer and carried on pushing forward. 5 minutes before the final
whistle they were rewarded for their efforts with a beautiful Gerard Kocks
lob, putting the final 2-3 on the scoreboard. |
