After the miss, neither team had any more chances, allowing Young PSV to rest with a lead.

Goal Maher
The beginning of the second half resembled the first half in many respects: both Young PSV and FC Den Bosch stood well defensively, giving little away on either side. The first chances were for the visitors. After an hour of play, substitute Havar shot just wide of goalkeeper Pasveer's goal. Six minutes later, Khalouta scored the 1-1 through a scrimmage. After the FC Den Bosch goal, both teams went in search of victory. In the closing stages Alberto almost shot Young PSV to victory: his hard volley hit the crossbar. In the 83rd minute, Maher shot the ball in a controlled manner, giving Young PSV the lead again. Maher had a great chance to make it 3-1 in the final minutes. Keeper Heemskerk caught the shot, keeping the difference at one goal. That was all that remained, giving Young PSV the full three points at the Jan Louwers Stadium.
