on 3 October 2010 against VVV-Venlo, scoring twice, in a 3–0 win. This was followed up by scoring against Willem II, Debreceni (scoring once in two separate matches) and Vitesse. Reis also netted a hat-trick against Feyenoord (his first in his professional career) in a 10–0 victory on 24 October 2010.
