Manasinho's fans were urging them forward as they tried to get back into the game, and their vocal support was rewarded 23 minutes into the match as C.

Cornelissen the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. 78 minutes into the game, PSVzuipsite.nl worked the left side industriously creating several opportunities to add to their lead, but just couldn't apply the finishing touch.

That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for R. Kroon.
