The report
On Tuesday afternoon, the O15 played another catch-up game. FC Twente was the opponent. In the away game PSV won deservedly, but narrowly 0-1 in very bad weather conditions. PSV was yearning for a victory, as the last four official matches were not won. Again, conditions were harsh, with wind chill far below freezing.
PSV started strongly and almost took the lead in the 2nd minute. A free kick by Milan van de Riet was narrowly tipped over the bar by the Twente goalkeeper. A few minutes later Milan had another free kick from just outside the penalty area, after a foul on Dyon Dorenbosch. This time he tried low into the corner. But again the goalie turned away Milan's effort. In the 19th minute, Twente almost took advantage of a mistake in the PSV build-up, but fortunately the Twente goalkeeper Aron van Lare could not find the goal so he did not have to come into action. After Twente's goalkeeper turned a Jesse Giebels effort into a corner, PSV took the lead in the 27th minute. After a good move by Iggy Houben Dylan Hopman got the ball, turned well free and rounded beautifully.
After halftime, PSV built on the lead. Soon after the resumption they made it 2-0 when Jasper Huijzer had a good action on the left and put the ball down at the far post. After a tangle, the ball ended up at the feet of Iggy Houben, who shot the ball into the corner with great composure. After the home team had missed some chances, PSV scored twice in the closing stages. First it was Milan van de Riet who scored the 3-0 after an assist from Martijn Zuijderwijk. The final chord was for Jasper Huijzer, who scored the final goal after a nice cross from Martijn.
A deserved, big win by PSV O15 that perhaps could have been even bigger. So within one week the team achieved a draw (N.E.C.), defeat (sc Heerenveen for the cup) and finally a win. Next weekend the away game against Ajax is on the schedule.
