Poepon double inspires 3-2 success against Heerenveen
Rydell Poepon scored twice to lead De Graafschap to a 3-2 victory over Heerenveen in the Eredivisie.
Heerenveen went into the clash with a four-point advantage over their rivals and soon took the lead courtesy of Christian Grindheim.
Muslu Nalbantoglu pulled a goal back for De Graafschap before half-time and Poepon made it 2-1 three minutes into the second period.
Oussana Assaidi equalised six minutes later and it looked like the teams would have to settle for a point apiece.
Poepon had other ideas though, and struck a decisive blow six minutes from time.
The result lifts De Graafschap to 10th place ahead of the rest of the weekend's games, while Heerenveen stay seventh.
