Stefan Nijland scores two goals at the Spangen Castle against Sparta
With two Nijland goals and a Lovre goal and assist the FC pulled off the 4th Eredivisie win in a row and with one day to go until the Dutch winterstop, FC Groningen is in 3rd place (moving ahead of Ajax!) and assured of nothing worse then 4th until the competition resumes. For FC Groningen that will be January 12th against Excelsior. With the 1-3 win at Spangen Castle (an actual castle that is part of the stadium as well as the oldest football ground in the Dutch Premier League)FC Groningen also has as many goals scored as goals given up. FC Groningen ended 2007 very strong and look to stay in the top 5 to contend for a spot in UEFA or Champions League competition in 2008.
