Feyenoord started the calendar year well with a win over sc Heerenveen. At Varkenoord, a goal by Kirsten van de Westeringh made the difference on Sunday evening: 1-0.
Feyenoord played a solid match against Heerenveen and created quite a few chances, but was often too sloppy in the final stages of the attack.
Jessica Torny’s team seemed to be heading for a disappointing 0-0 draw, but in the 66th minute, Kirsten van de Westeringh, who had come on as a substitute for Sanne Koopman at halftime, scored from a distance with a powerful shot: 1-0.
This goal not only marked Van de Westeringh’s first goal for Feyenoord, but also set the final score.
