SC Cambuur has won the first Eredivisie victory of the season. Henk de Jong’s troubled team was a size too big on their own field for a shabby and weak FC Twente. Jamie Jacobs was the hero of the evening with two hits.
Cambuur lost the first two matches against FC Groningen and PSV, but at Twente it also squeaks and creaks on all sides. Also in Leeuwarden, the team of Ron Jans did not seem like itself. Cambuur played better football and regularly created a threat. The biggest chance was for Robin Maulun, who saw his bet turned by Twente goalkeeper Lars Unnerstall.
Twente was not completely harmless. Both teams had one chance and that of Twente was from Ricky van Wolfswinkel. After the break, Twente ran into the knife after Luka Ilic was sent off with two yellow cards for a stupid foul. About ten minutes later, Jacobs scored the deserved opening goal for Cambuur.
Twente tried, but also after Jans’ attacking substitutions, Cambuur was the biggest threat. In stoppage time, Jacobs made the 2-0 for the Leeuwarders. It is Cambuur’s first Eredivisie victory since 2015.
