Captain Denzel Dumfries told ESPN after the 2-0 win over Willem II that he was determined to turn the final two duels of the season into a win as well. 'I firmly believe we can keep it up.'
Not scintillating
The game at the Koning Willem II Stadium was certainly not scintillating. The home team limited itself to holding back and saw PSV strike twice. Winning and through for PSV. "I can't deny that," said Dumfries, who himself was involved in the 0-2. "We knew beforehand what this week was all about: winning three times."
Eran Zahavi
Yet in Tilburg, that was not entirely a foregone conclusion. Shortly before kickoff of the game, striker Eran Zahavi dropped out for private reasons. "It wasn't easy to be confronted with such heavy news shortly before the game. I can't officially say what it's about, but I want to wish him and his family a lot of strength," Dumfries said.
