Feyenoord's lead at the top of the Eredivisie was cut to three points after a 2-2 draw at home to Heerenveen on Sunday.

Reza Ghoochannejhad put the visitors ahead early on before goals from Nicolai Jorgensen and Rick Karsdorp turned the tide.

But Arber Zeneli netted on the hour to clinch a point for the fourth-placed outfit. Ajax are Feyenoord's nearest rivals in the table while PSV Eindhoven are five points behind.

Mid-table Utrecht and NEC played out a 1-1 draw at Stadion Galgenwaard where Ferdi Kadioglu cancelled out goalkeeper Joris Delle's own goal, while Robert Muhren's late effort clinched a 1-0 win for fifth-placed AZ Alkmaar at ADO Den Haag.

In the early match, Zwolle moved up from 14th to 10th after a comfortable 3-1 victory at home to second-bottom Go Ahead Eagles thanks to goals from Queensy Menig, Mustafa Saymak and Danny Holla.
