Title: NAC V Twente
Location: Rat Verlegh Stadium
Description: Final round of the season! Twente or Ajax will be champion!
Start Time: 14:30
Date: 2010-05-02

The 2010 Eredivisie championship all comes down to this one game! After nine months of competition, 306 matches, 3000 minutes of playing time and 20,000 minutes of training, FC Twente can claim the 2010 championship with victory over NAC in Breda!

A draw or loss will almost certainly hand the crown to second placed Ajax, who sit just one point behind Twente, and face an easier task in Nijmegen against 12th placed NEC.

The battle has been a classic case of ‘the hare and the tortoise’, as flashy Ajax kicked butt all over the country with big numbers while FC Twente methodically went about it’s business notching one goal winners! Hence Ajax with it’s impressive 102-19 goal difference doubled it’s chances of winning the Shield for the 30th time in the club’s 110-year history. 

Twente clearly suffered a case of nerves during it’s 1-0 away loss to AZ in round 32 but Steve McLaren, the master of puting old heads on young shoulders, has clearly addressed the issue. Twente is ready to meet the challenge of ‘The Rat’ (Verlegh Stadium), and bring home the silverware for the first time since 1926.
