The newcomer to the current Eredivizi Gow Ahead Eagles did not stay long in the elite of Dutch football. Departure to the First Division of the Eagles was completed long before the end of the championship, because the last round for them, nothing has been decided. Having in the asset 23 points in 34 meetings, they finished the championship with a 9-point gap from the 17th place. Domestic defeat from Rotterdam Sparta with a score of 1: 3 was only a cherry on a bitter cake, and no value for the Eagles no longer had.

Nevertheless, the victory was important for Sparta itself, because it was thanks to these three points that the team from Rotterdam managed to secure its 16th place in the championship, avoiding the playoff matches and the risk of flying to the First Division.

Sparta also lost all the efforts of Nijmegen, who in the last round defeated Heerenveen (2-0), but could not get out of the 17th place in the standings, went to the playoffs.

Did not take advantage of the chance to leave the 18th position and Rod, who at the exit gave up helplessly to Vites (0: 3).

Thus, following the results of this season, Nijmegen and Rod are sent to the playoffs, who will still have a chance to compete for a residence permit in Eredivizi. In turn, the main loser of the championship ended was Go Ahead Eagles, who had already booked a place in the First Division.
