Vitesse ended a five-match winless run in the Eredivisie
by beating RKC Waalwijk 3-1, while Ajax extended their lead at the top on
Sunday.
Peter Bosz's side have slipped off the pace in the race
for the Dutch top-flight crown and were trailing at the break to
relegation-threatened RKC.
But Kenny Anderson's opener was eclipsed after the break
by goals from Mike Havenaar, Valeri Kazaishvili and Christian Twasam.
Vitesse remain eight points behind leaders Ajax, who ran
out 4-0 winners against AZ to move six points clear at the top.
Siem de Jong set the tone with his seventh league goal of
the campaign after just four minutes and the hosts ran riot after the interval.
Lerin Duarte scored twice, sandwiching Ricardo Kishna's
first goal for the club as the defending champions made it 13 league games
unbeaten and bounced back from the 3-0 UEFA Europa League defeat against
Salzburg on Thursday.
Second-placed Twente lost ground after a 2-2 home draw to
Feyenoord.
It could have been worse for Michel Jansen's charges, who
were 2-0 down with 22 minutes remaining.
Italian forward Graziano Pelle netted his 22nd goal of
the season in all competitions to hand the visitors the lead, which was doubled
after the break by Jean-Paul Boetius.
Luc Castaignos reduced the deficit midway through the
second half and Cuco Martina struck at the death to ensure the spoils were
shared.
Elsewhere, Johan Martensson's late goal earned Utrecht a
1-0 win over Groningen.
