On a freezing cold Saturday morning, the match against Fortuna Sittard was scheduled. Even before the game started, the technical staff had a surprise for the boys of PSV E2. That surprise was namely that, throughout the match, the coaches would not coach. Nor did they arrange the warm-up, line-up and tactics, but 'just' the players themselves. They did this to give the players even more responsibility and independence. I must say, you did that nicely, guys!
Now about the match. PSV E2 took a 1-0 lead after only 1 minute through a goal by Joris, who reacted very attentively to a mistake by the Fortuna defense. After that, PSV kept looking for the attack and Fortuna tried to get out through a counter. Then there was Joris again, who after a distance shot by Mylian, shot in from the rebound: 2-0. Then it seemed to become a difficult task for the team from Sittard. Especially when Joris, after a razor-sharp attack, shot the ball back into the goal: 3-0. The 4-0 also came in the name of Joris. After Gioele set up the attack and gave the assist, Joris tapped the ball in: 4-0. Fortuna made it 4-1, but was unable to come back in the game. Especially when Joris Verschut, who else, scored the 5-1. After that it looked like PSV would reach double figures. Martijn also scored a goal and made it 6-1. Then it was Gioele's turn, he scored a fine goal: 7-1. Fortuna scored an extra goal: 7-2. Soon after, it was again Gioele who, from the rebound, scored the goal: 8-2. After that it was Martijn who made it 9-2. My compliments for a good game and independence today! Class work, guys! On to the next match!
