This match was cancelled earlier on Saturday, November 22.
In the last match of the autumn competition, PSV C2 suffered an unnecessary 1-2 defeat against FC Den Bosch C2. PSV C2, without the injured Jorrit Hendrix and Jordy de Wijs, started well against the Bosch players. After ten minutes, Aron Schnorrenberg played the ball beautifully to Rai Vloet, who delivered a perfect cross from the back line to the incoming Endy Opoku Bernadina, who hit the ball from close range (1-0). Unfortunately, shortly after the opening goal, Sam Schuite had to leave the field of play for good with a head injury. Thanks to the good medical care provided by nurse Janet Ǻsheim and the ever-present PSV first aid man, Sam is on the mend and expects to be back on the training pitch on Monday.
PSV C2 stayed on top in the first half and several good chances were created. The strong goalkeeper of FC Den Bosch C2 did not give way and whipped the ball out of his goal one after the other.
After half time PSV C2 again looked for the attack, but the accuracy decreased and the sporadic FC Den Bosch counters became more and more dangerous. Halfway through the second half, FC Den Bosch C2 equalized after hesitant action by the PSV defense (1-1). PSV C2 tried to grab the victory and seemed to succeed when Jeroen Meefout headed in a Michael Maria cross. Unfortunately this goal was wrongly disallowed on the advice of the FC Den Bosch C2 linesman. Shortly afterwards what had already been feared happened. FC Den Bosch C2 again scored the winning goal (1-2) from a well executed counter. Because of this result PSV C2 finished second in the autumn competition after a bad start at a large distance of NAC C2 and FC Den Bosch C2 qualified in fifth place for the national spring competition with the best 12 (?) teams of the Netherlands.
Next week a practice match against FC Twente-Heracles C2, then karting and eating at ABC in Velp and then the football year 2008 is over.
I wish everyone happy holidays and see you all in 2009!
