Unfortunately Almere (4th) miss their shot at automatic promotion, and go into the playoffs. They will first play NEC Nijmegen (7th).
This morning, Woud in goal as Almere (75 pts & GD +27) drew 1-1 with PSV II. As it turned out Almere would have had to win by 10 goals, to grab 2nd spot and automatic promotion.
Go Ahead Eagles (a win) &
De Graafschap (a draw) both ended up on 77 points after this morning's games. Go Ahead Eagles (GD +37) finish 2nd on GD, and are automatically promoted.
De Graafschap finished the season with 4 draws, to give away 2nd spot.
De Graafschap (3rd), and Almere are joined in the playoffs by NAC Breda, Volendam, NEC & Roda JC. All the Jong sides were well down the table.
Woud's old club Willem II are still in danger of slipping into the Eredivisie's relegation playoff spot. So an Almere & Willem II playoff matchup is still possible.
