Eredivisie round-up: Dirk Kuyt earns Feyenoord late point against Ajax

Feyenoord dropped points in the Eredivisie for the first time this season after a 1-1 draw with rivals Ajax.

They needed a late Dirk Kuyt equaliser to cancel out Kasper Dolberg's opener and rescue a point at De Kuip.

Dolberg opened the scoring in the 55th minute, lifting the ball over goalkeeper Brad Jones after being put through by Joel Veltman.

But Feyenoord kept plugging away and got their reward with five minutes remaining when Kuyt headed home a cross from substitute Eljero Elia.

The Rotterdam side remain top of the table, five points clear of Ajax in second.

Heerenveen moved above PSV Eindhoven into third on goal difference with a 3-1 win over Heracles.

Stefano Marzo put them ahead after 20 minutes, but Brandley Kuwas equalised five minutes before half-time.

However, second-half strikes from Sam Larsson and Jeremiah St Juste wrapped up a comfortable win for the hosts.

First-half goals from Brian Linssen and Tom van Weert gave Groningen a 2-0 victory over AZ Alkmaar.

Linssen tapped in a cross from Hans Hateboer after 18 minutes and Van Weert headed the second in first-half stoppage time.

Dario Dumic's late strike earned NEC Nijmegen a 1-1 draw at home to Vitesse Arnhem.

The visitors led through Navarone Foor's goal seven minutes before half-time, but Dumic salvaged a point two minutes from the end.
