Decisive figure's early finish tilts the game for Zwolle against Fortuna Sittard

Koen Kostons decided it in the sixth minute with a close-range finish into the roof of the net, giving PEC Zwolle a 1-0 win over Fortuna Sittard in the Eredivisie.

He attacked Shola Shoretire's cross and converted from inside the six-yard box (6.).

Kostons then tested from distance as Zwolle looked for a second (35.). From there he led the line, contesting aerials and helping his side play higher when the chance arose.

He finished with two attempts, two tackles won, seven instances of possession won and four aerial wins, numbers that underlined his work rate as the focal point.

With Zwolle seeing 35.2% of the ball, his duels and hold-up play relieved pressure and ensured the early breakthrough stood.

Zwolle rise from 14th to 10th in the table. They visit Excelsior next. Fortuna Sittard host Almere in the KNVB Beker before returning to league action.
