Young PSV failed to get three points in Almere. Dennis Haar's team lost to Almere City, which thus became period champions.
Few chances
Psv U21 struggled to create chances. Verreth had a nice shooting chance early on and Gakpo was also dangerous. However, his effort met the foot of an Almere City player. On the other hand, Almere was also allowed to strike a few times. In the 36th minute the freshly crowned champions took the lead through a hard header by captain Damon Mirani. That was also the score at halftime.
No continuation of flashy start
Young PSV started the second half flashily. Cody Gakpo dribbled out of his man and was able to strike, quickly making it 1-1. PSV then had the initiative and got another chance through Aboukhlal but goalkeeper Etemadi saved with his fists. In the last half hour Almere City took control of the field and got a 2-1 lead through Efmorfidis. Young PSV did not manage to score anymore, making Almere the period champions.
