Ireland striker Troy Parrott had an eventful afternoon on Sunday, with the 24-year old at the centre of some early drama in AZ Alkmaar’s draw at Feyenoord.<\/p>\n

Taking on the team who sit second in the Eredivisie table, AZ Alkmaar were hoping for a positive result in order to build momentum at the end of what has been a mixed league campaign. While they did have a KNVB Cup triumph last month, they have been somewhat underwhelming in league play and sat sixth coming into this game.<\/p>\n

They would go on to secure a 1-1 draw against Feyenoord, with Troy Parrott very much at the heart of the action.<\/p>\n

Just when the home side thought they had gotten away with that early scare, Parrott would go on to produce a brilliant chip finish moments later to score for a second time. This goal stood.<\/p>\n

A cracking finish.<\/p>\n

Parrott was perhaps unfortunate not to be given a penalty later in the half, which would have given AZ Alkmaar the opportunity to double their lead.<\/p>\n

Feyenoord went on to level the content in the second half, with the game finishing in a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\n

AZ Alkmaar sit in sixth place in the league, although they have already secured European football for next season as a result of their KNVB Cup victory.<\/p>\n

This strike from Troy Parrott was his 31st of the club season, also registering 11 assists. It is widely expected this will be the player’s final campaign at AZ, with a couple of Premier League sides the latest to be credited with an interest<\/a> in his services this summer.<\/p>\n
