Wout Weghorst scored his first Eredivisie hattrick before the break, netting four goals to take the score to 0-5. Sondre Ørjasaeter had already set up four assists in the first half, and he added one more in the second to bring his total to five. This achievement is a new record in the Eredivisie this century, with Ørjasaeter surpassing all others.
Coen Moulijn, a legend from Feyenoord, had previously achieved this feat in 1959 and 1960. Meanwhile, Excelsior's Nesto Groen was sent off with a direct red card after he clashed with Robin Pröpper, raising his high boot to hit the defender's shoulder.
