Two-goal forward guides NEC to fifth
Two goals by Melvin Platje guided NEC to fifth in the Eredivisie thanks to a 2-0 win over Excelsior.
The game was goalless until 20 minutes from time when Platje scored his first goal, adding a second nine minutes later.
The win gave NEC four points from two games while Excelsior are still without either a point or a goal.
Ajax lead the table, having made a 100 per cent start to the season after two matches of the 2011/12 campaign.
But Excelsior's slow starts means they are propping up the Eredivisie.
