Late own goal gives Feyenoord Dutch Cup triumph


ROTTERDAM (Reuters) - Feyenoord were handed a 2-1 win over Utrecht in the Dutch Cup final after Eljero Elia's late strike rebounded into the net off goalkeeper Filip Bednarek on Sunday to give them their first trophy since 2008.

With 15 minutes left Elia streaked past the defence and struck a powerful shot that Bednarek pushed on to the post only for the ball to hit the keeper's back and fly into the net at the De Kuip stadium as Feyenoord won a 12th Dutch Cup.
