Utrecht 1-1 Feyenoord: Robin van Persie returns but away side held
Wednesday 24 January 2018 21:26, UK
Robin van Persie returned to action for Feyenoord after 14 years away as a late substitute but could not find a winner in their 1-1 draw at Utrecht.
Sam Larsson opened the scoring for Feyenoord midway through the first half with a shot from outside the penalty area.
The home side equalised four minutes before the interval when Gyrano Kerk netted his second goal in three games.
Feyenoord had ex-Liverpool goalkeeper Brad Jones to thank for the draw as his second-half saves kept the scores level.
Former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Van Persie then made his return, replacing Dylan Vente for the final 10 minutes following his transfer from Fenerbahce, but he could not score a late winner.
