    44': NEC 1-2 Utrecht, Toornstra crosses for DeRidder who dummies it allowing it roll in at the far corner of the net.

    What a silly, sloppy match. Fun to watch at times, but just as poorly played.

    HT. Not bad from Agudelo: no shots, but 11/12 passing and 2 tackles, to go with 3 fouls committed.

    Well, can't speak for the soccer, but this thread comes with a 100% money-back guarantee.;)

    60': NEC 2-2 Utrecht, GK error there, sold out for the cross, leaving a simple finish into an empty net.

    Apparently defense is a word to be taken lightly.

    Agudelo doing some good hold up work, but not getting many opportunities in the box. Still 2-2, 73'

    Agudelo with a nice turn and dribble, but his final touch is too strong and rolls out for a goal kick.

    DeRidder with a yellow for an alleged dive, then Agudelo sends him through again, and again he is tackled in the box with no call.

    FT: NEC 2-2 Utrecht. Utrecht withstand an all-out assault on their goal from NEC for the last 5 minutes and earn a road point.

    Full Time, 2-2. Agudelo played well, but didn't really have any attacking chances. Utrecht is a much worse team than I can ever remember.

    Those seem like very good stats, especially for a apparently sloppy game. Was he playing as a withdrawn striker?

    Nominally he was a striker in a 4-4-2. In actuality he ended up playing more like an attacking midfielder in a 4-5-1, even with the nominal attacking mid, #11 van der Gun; Agudelo is #18 on the following average position map:
