Decisive figure stands tall for Nijmegen at Twente

Gonzalo Cretazz set the tone in the 19th minute with a firm save, underpinning NEC Nijmegen's 1-1 draw at FC Twente.

He parried a low drive (23.). Moments later he tipped a rising effort from the angle (27.). Before the interval he held another shot from the centre (40.).

After the break he nearly turned provider, his quick release sending Tjaronn Chery clear to rattle the bar (84.). His biggest stop came in the fourth minute of second half stoppage time, when he got down to a header to preserve the point.

He finished with six saves and created one big chance, a blend of handling and distribution that calmed his defence. With Twente posting eight shots on target, his positioning and footwork kept the tie level.

Nijmegen host Telstar next. Twente visit AZ next.
