In seven games PSV U21 took only four points. On a visit to Excelsior, coach Peter Uneken's formation had to take the full prize, but a weak first half did PSV U21 the death.
Early goals against
After ten minutes, PSV U21 was already facing a 2-0 deficit. Uneken's team did not get into the game and saw the hosts go ahead 4-0 after half an hour. A striking detail about Excelsior's goals was that every goal was scored from a standard situation.
Good second half
PSV U21 got off to a good start in the second half. After about twenty minutes, Robin Lauwers and Cyril Ngonge took care of a somewhat bearable score on the scoreboard: 4-2. In the closing stages the home team struck one more time and the game ended 5-2.
