PSV Eindhoven and Heracles maintained their pressure on the Eredivisie's top two with late away wins on Saturday.

With Ajax and Feyenoord playing on Sunday, the chasing pair moved within a point of the joint leaders.

PSV were tied with hosts FC Twente after goals from Luuk de Jong and Hakin Ziyech, but took all the points when Jurgen Locadia and Gaston Pereiro netted in the last six minutes.

Heracles were 1-0 winners at De Graafschap, Iiass Bel Hassani netting in the 83rd minute.

Willem II wasted a golden chance for victory when Stijn Wuytens missed a penalty two minutes from time against Heerenveen.
