Heracles make KNVB Cup final, after 109 years

Almelo-based football club Heracles will take on PSV Eindhoven in the final of the KNVB Cup on April 8, after beating AZ of Alkmaar 2-4 in extra time.


Heracles’ victory dashes AZ’s hope of the double which took an earlier knock at the weekend when their lead at the top of the premier division table was cut to one point by Ajax.
Heracles came into the semi-final after four straight defeats. It is the first time they have qualified for the cup final since the club was founded in 1903, the AD reported.
