Overview

• Almere led 2-0 through Junior Kadile and former Vitesse defender Enzo Cornelisse, who chose not to celebrate his header.
• Substitute João Pinto leveled deep into added time by anticipating a long pass from Mathijs Marschalk.
• Marco Schikora had pulled one back late for Vitesse with a header from Justin Bakker’s free kick.
• Almere coach Jeroen Rijsdijk made four changes to his XI from last week, and local coverage credited substitute Byron Burgering with the cross for Cornelisse’s goal.
• Vitesse lost Alexander Büttner to a hamstring injury in the second half, and despite taking a point they sit last with 11 points from eight matches because of the -12 penalty.
