Strikers Collins John and Blaise N'Kufo scored a goal each Saturday as FC Twente continued its impressive run in the Dutch premiership, beating Willem II Tilburg 3-2.

Twente is in fifth place, level with Feyenoord on 28 points. SC Heerenveen, which edged Vitesse Arnhem 1-0 on Richard Knopper's fifth-minute winner, trails by one point.

Leader Ajax, with 40 points, hosts NEC Nijmegen on Sunday while PSV Eindhoven, three points adrift in second, travels to FC Groningen.

Third-place AZ Alkmaar went down 1-0 Friday to lowly ADO The Hague thanks to Jan Kromkamp's unfortunate own-goal.
