Standout creator runs the show for Groningen | OneFootball

David van der Werff unlocked PEC Zwolle in the 20th minute with a precise pass, launching Groningen to a 3-0 victory. The midfielder later supplied a second assist to cap a standout display.

For the opener, van der Werff timed his release perfectly, slipping a pass into the centre that was finished first time. The move set the tone, with Groningen repeatedly finding him between the lines.

He then fashioned another chance with a through ball that forced a low save (30.). After the restart, his delivery from a set piece was headed in for the clincher (68.), underlining his influence on both dead balls and open play.

The 22-year-old finished with two assists, four key passes and 12 successful passes in the final third, plus three attempts, a profile that combined creativity and goal threat. He also drew two fouls, keeping Zwolle's midfield on the back foot.

Groningen rise from tenth to sixth in the Eredivisie and visit Excelsior next. Zwolle drop from 13th to 16th and host Cambuur next.
