PSV easily past FC Utrecht
Fc Utrecht could not trouble PSV A1 on Saturday. PSV dictated the game and forced chances. It also gave nothing away except for a small chance in the second half that also surprised the FC Utrecht attackers.
The score was opened by Albian Muzaqi who finished a cross from Moussa Sanoh with his left and shot the ball into the roof of the goal.
Immediately after halftime, left wing defender Sander Heesakker started a rush along the sideline. On the back line he pulled for the ball the goal where Rai Vloet was ready to shoot in. The goalkeeper knocked the ball back into the field from behind the line but Rai took no chances and fired in again. Fifteen minutes before time the final decision came when Moussa came through on the right and shot under the keeper into the goal.
The team now faces a tough week ahead. Tuesday they fly to Antalya where CSKA Moscow awaits for the eighth NextGen final, then travel to Rotterdam on Saturday for the topper against Feyenoord.
