On August 2, 2025, Feyenoord took on Wolfsburg in a preparation match in Rotterdam. The game, which was scheduled to end in a 4-0 victory for Feyenoord, was abruptly halted due to a medical emergency in the stands involving a fan.
The match, which was filled with excitement, saw several notable events. Gonçalo Borges, the new addition to Feyenoord, made his debut for the club. The transfer of Borges, who arrived at Feyenoord with Luciano Valente, Gaoussou Diarra, and Sem Steijn, was announced with great pomp and circumstance and was noteworthy for the amounts involved in the negotiations with his previous club, FC Porto. Borges signed a contract with Feyenoord on a permanent basis and expressed his excitement about joining the club, citing its rich history, passion, and style of play.
The match began with Ayase Ueda scoring the opening goal for Feyenoord in the 27th minute. The team continued to dominate, with Luciano Valente scoring a goal assisted by Borges in the 68th minute. Gaoussou Diarra added the fourth goal for Feyenoord in the 75th minute.
However, the celebration was cut short when a medical emergency occurred in the stands a few minutes before the final whistle.

As of now, there is no verified information about the fan's health status after the incident. Our thoughts are with the affected individual and their family during this difficult time.
