The entertaining clash had finished 2-2 after extra time but that was nothing compared toVitesse Arnhem’s 10-1 hammering of third-tier amateursADO ’20 Heemskerk.
Graziano Pelle put Feyenoord ahead after 28 minutes with a well-executed volley but 10 minutes after the break Jeffrey Gouweleeuw equalised.
“It is always a pleasure to be decisive in a shootout but we caused our own problems,” said Feyenoord keeper Erwin Mulder, who saved four penalties.
“After our second goal we should have sealed the match and then we again concede a goal from a set piece,” he added.
