PSV has won the away match against PEC Zwolle in the Eredivisie without problems. The Eindhoven team were 4-0 too strong on Saturday evening. For PSV it meant the fourth consecutive victory in a match in the competition.
The club from Eindhoven has 19 points after eight duels and is in the shared first place in the Eredivisie. Feyenoord can take a distance from PSV again on Sunday at a good result against FC Utrecht.
Just like Wednesday, Guus Til started in the away match against Bayer Leverkusen (1-1) in the Champions League as a striker. Ivan Perisic received peace from trainer Peter Bosz, who had captain Jenny Schouten play football as a central defender. Ryan Flamingo and Armando Obispo were on the reserve bench.
PSV did not show much the first quarter of the game. The first chance in the 23rd minute immediately yielded a goal. After a pass by Joey Veerman, Couhaib Driouech laid the ball wide on Ismael Saibari, who could easily score: 0-1. Shortly thereafter, Guus Til scored, but that goal was rejected because of offside.
Shortly before half -time, PSV ran further away. PEC keeper Tom de Graaff went wrong when he wanted to respond to a defender. PSV benefited via Dennis Man, who scored with the left: 0-2.
Red card
PSV did not get into trouble in the second half and got it even easier when Tristan Gooijer from PEC Zwolle had to leave in the 62nd minute with a direct red card, for a foul on Veerman. Veerman himself took care of the third goal five minutes later (0-3). The substitute flamingo determined the final score in the injury time with a header.
Debut
The 17-year-old Noah Fernandez made his debut for PSV during the game. The young Belgian came the field for his countryman Saibari in the 80th minute.
PSV will resume the competition after the coming international match with a home game against Go Ahead Eagles. Then Napoli comes to visit the Champions League.
