Jorrit Hendrix played his 200th game in the PSV shirt last Sunday against Heracles Almelo. The editors of PSV list the most memorable moments of his career.
Since taking his first steps at the club as an F-boy, the midfielder has grown into a PSV midfielder of our time. As a 9-year-old boy, he entered the club's youth training program. He went through the entire training and is now a regular in the A-selection. In the 2013-2014 season, he made his debut in PSV 1 under Phillip Cocu in the 5-0 win at home against N.E.C.
Crucial goals
Hendrix scored the 0-1 at the away game against Vitesse in the 2015-2016 season. PSV became champions this season with two points difference over Ajax. In retrospect, the conclusion can be drawn that this goal was a major deciding factor in the championship battle.
The Limburger is not only ready to score decisive goals, they are sometimes of high quality. The opening goal at PSV - Willem II in September 2018 was something to behold. The midfielder volleyed a rebounded ball into the Tilburgers' goal.
European success
Hendrix was also heavily involved in PSV's European success. In the 2015-2016 Champions League season, PSV nearly reached the quarterfinals of the tournament. In the successful group stage, Hendrix played every match, including the legendary 2-1 victory over Manchester United. Our midfielder held strong against big names like Memphis, Wayne Rooney, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Anthony Martial. The 2018-2019 Champions League season didn't go as well for PSV, but there Hendrix did play regularly in the starting lineup against teams like Inter Milan, FC Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur.
Championships
Hendrix has won three championships with PSV. In the 2014-2015, 2015-2016 and 2017-2018 seasons. In these seasons, the midfielder was a regular base player under the coaching staff of Phillip Cocu. In the championship match at home against Ajax, which was won 3-0, Hendrix played the full 90 minutes. His talent did not go unnoticed. Under national coach Danny Blind, Hendrix made his debut with the Dutch national team during an exhibition match against Greece at Philips Stadium. Unfortunately, this debut ended in a deception. Through goals by, among others, upcoming teammate Kostas Mitroglou, the Greeks walked off the field victorious.
Favorite teammates
As a PSV youth exponent, Hendrix knows the team inside out. The teammate with whom he has shared the field most often is Jeroen Zoet. The two have played more than 180 games together. One of those matches was Hendrix's only international, where Zoet played in the starting lineup. Hendrix will be put in the spotlight by PSV prior to the match against Apollon Limassol.
