Match Info
FC Twente Enschede and Excelsior SBV played out a goalless 0-0 draw in their Eredivisie fixture on January 25, 2026. The match at De Grolsch Veste was a tense, tactical affair with few clear-cut chances, resulting in a share of the points. Both teams struggled to break down well-organized defenses, with much of the play condensed in midfield. FC Twente, pushing for European qualification, enjoyed the majority of possession but found Excelsior's disciplined low block difficult to penetrate. Excelsior, fighting relegation, offered a sporadic threat on the counter-attack but failed to test the Twente goalkeeper seriously. The best chance of the game fell to Twente in the second half, but their striker's header was brilliantly saved by the Excelsior keeper. The result was more valuable for Excelsior, earning a hard-fought point on the road, while it represented two points dropped for Twente in their pursuit of the top five. Both managers acknowledged the defensive strength of the opposition in their post-match comments.
