Last game of the season
PSV played another convincing game today in the last league game of this season and once again underlined why it is the national champion of the Netherlands. Thanks to goals by Flamingo, Fernandez, Man, Til and Pepi, FC Twente had little to contribute. The Tukkers finished fourth, cleverly securing a European ticket.
