Both sides looked dangerous right from the first whistle, and Feyenoord seized the lead after just 10 minutes, when Sinisterra put the home side ahead with a fantastic curler to the left side of the goal.

Sor and Olayinka had opportunities to bring the scores back level terms for Slavia Prague after Feyenoord seized the lead, but they failed to capitalize.

Slavia Prague’s persistence ultimately paid off four minutes before the break, when Olayinka reacted quickly to a rebound and blasted home from close range to tie the game at 1-1.

The second half proceeded in the same style as the first, but it took 22 minutes for a team to score.

Sor, another Nigerian striker, was at the center of it all. To make it 2-1 for the visitors, the 21-year-old blasted a well-placed drive behind Ofir Marciano.

Despite this, the game was beyond finished, Dessers entered the fray as Feyenoord attempted to rescue a result.

The Genk loanee demonstrated his prowess by assisting Marcos Senesi to make the score line 2-2.

After Orkun Kocku’s 86th-minute goal, the Dutch felt they had won the contest, but Ibrahim Traore had other plans. The 33-year-old struck panic into the hearts of Feyenoord fans by scoring in the sixth minute of stoppage time to secure a 3-3 draw.
