Decisive figure lifts NAC Breda past Heerenveen | OneFootball

Boy Kemper struck in the 36th minute and later converted a penalty to give NAC Breda a 2-0 win over Heerenveen.

He timed his run from midfield and guided a left-footed finish into the bottom right from the centre of the box (36.).

He stayed central to the drama after a Heerenveen equaliser was ruled out by VAR (69.). When VAR confirmed a handball by Hristiyan Ivaylov Petrov, he took responsibility from the spot (71.). He rolled the penalty into the bottom left to double the advantage (74.).

Kemper finished with two shots on target, two tackles won and seven recoveries, adding eight crosses and 14 successful passes in the final third to underline his two-way influence.

Operating from midfield, his late arrivals and set-piece nerve unsettled Heerenveen's back line, while his distribution kept NAC Breda on the front foot in key phases.
