It reminded Luuk de Jong of the game PSV played against Feyenoord in 2014. In December of that year, PSV won 4-3 from the Rotterdammers in the last second; on Saturday, De Jong saw his side come back from beaten position in Alkmaar and eventually win 3-2. "This is bizarre," he said.
De Jong looks forward to Ajax
After 61 minutes, PSV seemed beaten. Weghorst headed the home team to 2-0, but after Gastón Pereiro scored the tying goal in the 74th minute, PSV ran out to 2-3 within five minutes. "So many things go through your head when you're 2-0 behind. Even with Ajax on the schedule. Now it will be a great match in a beautiful atmosphere."
'Great job'
Head coach Phillip Cocu thought De Jong took the lead, even after PSV fell behind 2-0. "He always does that. In good and bad times," spoke Cocu, who spoke of a team performance. "We took a big step by winning here. It doesn't feel like a championship yet, but we can celebrate this. It marks our team that we are fighting back. That's really a quality. The team did a great job. We're going to do everything we can to win again next week."
