ADO RELEGATED; PSV Back On Top

Three games were played on Saturday in the Dutch Eredivisie:

At The Hague:

ADO Den Haag were officially eliminated from the battle for Dutch Eredivisie survival by assuring themselves of finishing in the bottom of the league standings, and will play next season in the second division. The hosts were blanked 2-0 by Roda JC Kerkrade. Davy De Fauw (48') and Marcel Meeuwis (PK-60') scored for the guests.

At Eindhoven:

Jefferson Farfan's first-half double (19', 20') lifted PSV Eindhoven to a 2-0 home victory over Twente Enschede and back to first place in the Eredivisie standings.

At Rotterdam:

Tom Janssen's second-half hat trick (54', 58', 90') lifted RKC Waalwijk to a 3-0 road pasting of Excelsior. The win climbed the guests to within one point of escaping the relegation-playoff zone and helped seal ADO Den Haag's relegation from the top flight.
