The 2014 KNVB Cup Final was a football match between PEC Zwolle and Ajax on 20 April 2014 at De Kuip, Rotterdam. It was the final match of the 2013–14 KNVB Cup competition and the 96th Dutch Cup final. PEC Zwolle beat Ajax 5–1 to secure their first KNVB Cup trophy.[1][2]

The match saw major crowd disturbance from Ajax fans, who were throwing fireworks on the pitch. This caused the referee to suspend the match in the fifth minute with Ajax a goal ahead. After a half-hour interval, play was resumed.[3]
