The cup final has been postponed for the second time. The match between Feyenoord and NEC Nijmegen in De Kuip was interrupted in the first half due to fireworks and additional smoke developments, while things went wrong again a few minutes after halftime. This time the banners catch fire, sending black smoke through the stadium. The scoreboard shows a 0-0 score at the time of the stoppage.

Reporter Jan Joost van Gangelen reports to the camera ESPN that the banners lying in the canals of the stadium must be removed before the game continues.

The banners used caught fire due to the fireworks.
