Karim El Ahmadi and Danny Koevermans see how Feyenoord was completely outplayed by PSV in the first half. The analysts see a big difference in fighting spirit between the two teams. The Eindhoven team already took a 3-0 lead within twenty minutes.
“What I dislike most is that it seems as if every player at Feyenoord is on edge,” El Ahmadi begins in the half-time analysis on ESPN. “At certain times I see that PSV goes over it. You can occasionally commit a slight foul. I don’t see that at Feyenoord. If you are completely outplayed for 45 minutes, you can also think that you have to do it differently. PSV loves it.”

The former Feyenoord player therefore thinks that this rapid deficit is partly due to Feyenoord’s staff. “When you see that you are being outplayed… The central defender doesn’t know whether to cover,” the analyst says ESPN further. “The backs don’t know when to cover. Then make sure you play closer to each other. You will be completely outplayed.”
After the second goal, the PSV supporters also chanted ‘ten, ten, ten’. “You kind of got that vibe. It also seemed like after that 3-0 that they were slowing down. If they had continued, you would almost think that 10-0 would come close, but I don’t think it will happen. PSV is slowing down a bit. It was bizarre to see the class difference.”
