PSV also put FC Twente aside with childish ease. At home, the leader of the Eredivisie fell behind after ten minutes, but after that it mainly gave a gala performance. PSV achieved a 6-1 victory through Noa Lang, Malik Tillman, Ismael Saibari (twice), Richard Ledezma and Ricardo Pepi.
It was quite a shock after ten minutes when Sem Steijn brutally gave FC Twente the lead. The midfielder brilliantly shot a free kick into the goal. PSV lagging behind at home; a situation that does not often occur in the Eredivisie.
It didn’t last long, because ten minutes later it was Noa Lang who again put the leader of the Eredivisie next to number five in the rankings. Malik Tillman finally put things in order after more than half an hour by making it 2-1.
Strong bench
At PSV there was a bit of rotation in the run-up to the match with Stade Brest in the Champions League. Ricardo Pepi was given a starting place again at the expense of Luuk de Jong and the much-discussed Guus Til started on the bench at the expense of Mauro Júnior. Joey Veerman and Jerdy Schouten, both just returned from, were also back on the bench.
As a result, Peter Bosz had a good level of substitutes available. It indicates the luxurious position PSV is in. After 55 minutes I could already start thinking about the match against Stade Brest. Because two goals from Ismael Saibari made the Eindhoven team 4-1.
Waiting for privacy settings…
PSV too good for the Eredivisie?
In the space of five days, PSV easily beat the numbers two and five in the rankings. On Sunday, FC Utrecht was defeated 5-2. Now FC Twente had to believe it. The team that even finished third last season.
The Tukkers were sent to Enschede with a severe beating. Because through Richard Ledezma and Ricardo Pepi it even became 6-1 in the Philips Stadium.
It once again indicates the balance of power in the Eredivisie. It’s only December, but things have to get weird this season if PSV doesn’t want to win a new title this season. For the time being, it has a nine-point lead over Ajax, which will play against AZ on Sunday.
