With Ruud van Nistelrooy at the helm for the first time, PSV U21 performed well in Dordrecht. For almost the entire match, the promise team showed the right intentions. At the end, however, the team had to settle for a point.
Right on target
With 18-year-old starting debutant Aron van Lare, PSV U21 started the new season fresh. In the 17th minute, PSV U21 had their first chance. Fodé Fofana came alone in front of the goalkeeper and finished off coolly. After that it was not the home team, but PSV U21 that increased the pressure. The ball went around easily in front of the Schapekoppen goal, although that did not lead to an extension of the score.
More deserved
Debutant under the crossbar Aron van Lare could not prevent a counter goal just after half-time. FC Dordrecht then immediately put pressure again, but starting debutant Mohamed Nassoh did not let this fool him and immediately opted for the ball forward. PSV U21 took the initiative again. However, the team failed to reward itself, so the opponent almost started to smell more in the closing stages. Still, it remained 1-1.
