Two teams standing in a scrum beforehand shouting that they are going to win. That promises something.
The game kicks off. PSV immediately went on the attack, which resulted in a chance in the first minute that Roda just saved.
Our boys put continuous pressure on the Roda defense, which resulted in good chances, but always just short of a goal.
Roda takes the term "own half" very literally, they only want to play on their own half of the pitch. It is not the game we expected to see.
In the 34th minute, PSV gets what it deserves. The ball from a corner is brought under control by Vince on the penalty spot and from the spin is pegged into the top corner: 1-0
In the first half, PSV was clearly in control and did not get into any trouble. Unfortunately, the superiority was not expressed in several goals.
The second half was about to begin. Dads, moms, grandmas, grandpas, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces and other supporters are enjoying a lovely autumn sunshine. hoping to see some more nice goals.
Roda starts to play a little more forward at the beginning of the second half, but is unable to make things difficult for PSV. However, this does provide PSV with a little more space, which yields the 2-0 in the 10th minute. Gregory manages to get the ball in front of the goal with a nice action, where Sem was already in the right place to complete the attack.
Also in the second half, PSV kept control without any problems, but could not translate this into a spectacle with many goals.
In the final minutes, it did become 3-0 through an unstoppable distance shot by Sekou.
Still, another excellent performance from a team that we see getting stronger every week.
