KNVB Cup: Sparta-Belgian Verschueren’s goal is not enough to floor PSV | football Netherlands

Sparta had kept PSV at 0-0 in the competition last Saturday and the Eindhoven team also had a good time in the cup. However, it was already 0-2 at halftime, after goals from Xavi Simons and Madueke.

But PSV goalkeeper Drommel wanted to keep the tension. Bad elimination, could be punished by Sparta-Belgian Arno Verschueren. After this, PSV actually faltered and was even saved by the crossbar, on an attempt by Saito.

There were already a few remarkable results in the first round with part of the Dutch first division teams. That is how Vitesse and RKC died very quickly.

RKC had to visit De Treffers in Groesbeek and that team had not stolen its name. The amateur club managed to score twice and sent RKC home with a serious hangover.

Vitesse was also bullied by a team from the lower class. The Cossack Boys pushed coach Philip Cocu’s team to the limit. It was 2-2 after extra time and so penalties had to be taken. Meulensteen was the only one to miss and thus sealed the early elimination of his team.
