'Red card turning point,' De Jong finds

After the home game against sc Heerenveen (2-2), most of the talk was about the red card referee Dennis Higler handed out to Hirving Lozano on the stroke of half-time. A turning point thought Luuk de Jong. "That was it."

Cocu sick of points loss
The captain stood before the microphone of FOX Sports with a "very sour" feeling, he said. "Due to an inattention on our part, we get the 2-1 against too quickly," said De Jong, who found support from Head Coach Phillip Cocu. "I'm sick of this, because it wasn't necessary. Until the red card, there was nothing wrong," Cocu said.

Cocu, who said that Lozano was completely upset by the red card because he tried to free himself from a situation in which he was being held without harming the opponent, did not want to comment on the situation himself. "The referee decides. We have to make sure we get the game in with ten men, we didn't succeed. The boys gave everything, but luck was definitely not on our side today. We will work quietly towards Feyenoord." PSV resume the Eredivisie Sunday at De Kuip.
