Roda JC vs. Groningen

Roda deservedly took the lead after 19 minutes at Parkstad Limburg stadium, as a great effort from Anouar Hadouir from outside the penalty area found its way past keeper Van Loo.

Groningen equalised on the half hour mark however. A cross from Fredrik Stenman was headed back into the box by Van de Laak, and Goran Lovre easily finished for 1-1.

The away side went a man down soon after the interval as Danny Holla's violent tackle on Mads Junker had referee Vink pull a red card.
