Attack, attack, attack: N.E.C. Nijmegen's tactics have to be seen to be believed

""Crazy -- that's exactly the word for it," N.E.C. supporter Stefan Verhagen tells ESPN. "In 62 years, I have never seen anything like it. Teams come here, and they are shaking in their boots.""

""Here, we kick the ball, we run forward -- and we score," Florian, another fan, says."

"N.E.C.'s relentlessly attacking, high-pressing football is a whirlwind experience. TV figures regularly place their games in the top three most watched on a weekend in the country, but it has to be seen live to be believed."

"After a 1-1 draw on Saturday in a match with serious UEFA Champions League implications against giants Feyenoord -- courtesy of an incredible 97th-minute equalizer -- the club sit third in the Eredivisie table, three points ahead of Ajax with four games to go."
