    Danish defender Joachim Andersen struck what would prove to be the winner just 10 minutes in when he rose to meet a right-wing cross and guided a header back across visiting keeper Bram Castro and into the net.

    The win sees Twente move up to seventh in the table ahead of the weekend's action while Heracles remain in 11th.
