Mission completed: Feyenoord secures a Champions League spot

Feyenoord has secured the coveted Champions League spot for next season. Robin van Persie’s side earned a point at home against AZ (1-1), which, combined with results elsewhere, was enough to clinch second place.

The way the mission was accomplished on Sunday at De Kuip was symbolic of Feyenoord’s season as a whole. It was anything but straightforward, and Feyenoord had to hold on until the final whistle to get the result over the line.

In the end, Anis Hadj Moussa’s equaliser proved enough, as it left Ajax and FC Twente too far behind to catch up before the final round of fixtures. N.E.C. could have kept things interesting heading into next week, but the side from Nijmegen were beaten in Groningen.

As a result, Feyenoord will wrap up the season next Sunday in Zwolle with nothing left to play for. Their match against PEC Zwolle kicks off at 2:30 p.m.
