Elm and Pranjic goals set up date with Twente

Heerenveen will face FC Twente in the final of the Dutch Cup after a 2-0 semi-final victory over Volendam. Goals from Viktor Elm and Danijel Pranjic were enough for Heerenveen to set up a date with Steve McClaren's Twente outfit next month. Swedish striker Elm opened the scoring after just 10 minutes against a Volendam side battling to stay in the Eredivisie. Heerenveen's place in the final was assured with six minutes to go when Danijel Pranjic curled his shot beyond Volendam keeper Jeroen Verhoeven. The final will be played on 17th May, with Twente and Heerenveen also fighting for a UEFA Champions League place for next season.
