With less than 40 seconds to go, former Liverpool striker dirk Kuyt took advantage of the visitors mistakes to open the scoring for the home team with a cross-angle shot. This is Feyenoord's 100th goal in the Dutch National Championship this season.
In the 12th minute, Kuyt scored the second goal for Feyenoord when choosing a good position to head the ball accurately after a cross from his teammate. dirk Kuyt completed his own hat-trick in the 84th minute with a penalty kick. Van Ooijen scored an honorary goal for Heracles Almelo in the 89th minute.
This result was enough for coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst's team to be crowned, although second-placed Ajax Amsterdam also had a 3-1 victory at Willem II's field. Feyenoord should have won the championship a week earlier if they had not surprisingly lost 0-3 to Excelsior.
This is Feyenoord's first Dutch national championship in 18 years. In this journey to the title, Feyenoord has topped the rankings for 34 rounds with a gap between them and Ajax ranging from 1-5 points.
They are the first team to do this in the Dutch National Championship since Ajax Amsterdam in 1997-1998.
Thus, next season, Feyenoord will participate in the UEFA Champions League after a disappointing performance in the Europa League this season. They could not pass the group stage when they were only third in Group A with 7 points after 6 matches, after Fenerbache and Man United.
