Wout Weghorst scored four goals as FC Twente beat Excelsior 9-0 away on Sunday, moving to fourth in the Eredivisie with 23 points from 11 matches. Excelsior have 11 points.
The contest was heavily affected by a red card in the fifth minute. Excelsior striker Nesto Groen was sent off by referee Erwin Blank after making contact with Twente defender Robin Pröpper’s chest, according to ANP’s report carried by Nieuws.nl.
Weghorst headed Twente ahead in the 14th minute and scored again after half an hour. He completed a first-half hat-trick as Twente went into the break 5-0 up, with Thomas van der Belt and Daan Rots also scoring.
Jordy Bawuah, Weghorst and Ramiz Zerrouki—both from the penalty spot—and Rots added the second-half goals. Norway’s Sondre Ørjasæter supplied five assists.
