Eerder dit seizoen werd het in het Mandemakers Stadion 2-2. Cyril Ngonge opende vlak na rust de score, maar Nicolai Jørgensen maakte niet veel later gelijk. Tien minuten voor tijd werd het via Ola John 2-1, maar opnieuw was het Feyenoord dat kort daarna weer op gelijke hoogte kwam. Ridgeciano Haps was verantwoordelijk voor het slotakkoord.
