Feyenoord - FC Groningen 1-1

Only an own goal prevented the FC from going home with three points. A unneccesary own goal from Fledderus in extra time before the half put Feyenoord even with the green and whites. Until then FC Groningen was ahead by way of a 32nd minute goal by Berg (unassisted). A lack of concentration by Fledderus caused the defender to head the ball in his own goal. It was a lackluster performance in front of 42,000 by both teams. The draw puts the FC in 5th place overall.
On a side note, Rasmus Lindgren signed a contract with Ajax Amsterdam (3rd FC Groningen player to do so this season) and Erik Nevland signed with Fulham. The transfer/trade deadline is January 31st and the FC has some work to do to make up for the loss of talented players.
