Joris Overeem changed it in the 30th minute with a precise assist, setting Heerenveen on the way to a 4-2 win over PEC Zwolle.

Overeem first unpicked Zwolle by slipping a measured pass into the inside channel to tee up a low strike from outside the box (30.). It halved the deficit and shifted momentum towards the hosts.

After the restart, he struck again as the move's organiser, recycling second phase possession and nudging play to the edge of the area, where the decisive effort was rifled into the top corner from outside the box (63.).

The midfielder finished with two assists plus four key passes, 15 successful final third passes and 10 recoveries, underscoring how he connected midfield to attack and kept Heerenveen on the front foot.

The display lifts Heerenveen from 10th to 8th in the Eredivisie and they visit PSV next. Zwolle drop from 11th to 13th and travel to Utrecht next.
