Ihattaren y Zeefuik aseguran la victoria a domicilio del Fortuna en Groningen

Fortuna Sittard produced a composed away performance to topple FC Groningen 2-3 in a match that swung decisively in the visitors' favour after a bright start from the home side.

Groningen struck first when Daley van der Werff converted in the 19th minute, but Fortuna had already shown their attacking intent. Mohamed Ihattaren opened the scoring for the visitors in the 12th minute before van der Werff's response put the hosts ahead. The momentum shifted sharply in the 28th minute when Lennart Zeefuik levelled the match, and Fortuna never relinquished control thereafter.

Fortuna's resilience was tested throughout, though they managed the game effectively after going behind. Their attacking play proved clinical when opportunities arose, and Groningen found themselves unable to mount sufficient pressure to force an equaliser despite playing at home. The visitors' defence stood firm through the closing stages.

This away victory marked a significant three points for Fortuna Sittard, who showed the character needed to overturn adversity and secure the points in what was a competitive contest. Groningen, meanwhile, were left to rue their inability to convert early promise into a positive result after Daley van der Werff's 19th-minute goal.
