Sparta and De Graafschap play out 0-0 draw
Sparta Rotterdam and De Graafschap played out a 0-0 draw on Friday night in a result that does neither side any real favours.
Both clubs were seeking to give their survival hopes a boost at Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel, but a breakthrough never came.
Bottom-of-the-table De Graafschap have now managed just one win in their previous six outings and look set to at least battle it out in the relegation play-offs come the end of the term.
Foeke Booy's Sparta Rotterdam, meanwhile, remain in 14th, just four points above the lowest three.
