De Tukkers head to KNVB Beker semi-finals

De Tukkers advanced to the semi-finals of the KNVB Beker with a stunning 1-0 victory over De Graafschap. De Graafschap’s defending was tough throughout the match and while Twente controlled the run of play they couldn’t find a way through often. With two minutes remaining in regulation time Kenneth Perez accepted Blaise N’Kufo through ball and drove the ball off the post from the edge of the area. In a extra time Sander Boschker saved the day holding back Rogier Meijer’s shot from twenty-five metres. However with the match looking like it is headed to the penalty shootout, Austrian international Marko Arnautović accepted Kenneth Perez’s pass and sent the ball in from point-blank range to give Twente the 1-0 win.
