PSV Eindhoven returned to victory in the Eredivisie with a 2-1 win over SC Heerenveen. Dominant throughout the match, Peter Bosz’s men lacked realism for a long time before Ismael Saibari broke the deadlock at the end of the first half. In the 40th minute, the Moroccan international finished off a beautiful team play initiated by Olivier Boscagli and laid off by Guus Til, allowing PSV to take the lead before the break.
After the halftime break, Guus Til quickly doubled the score, but a mistake by Olivier Boscagli allowed Levi Smans to reduce the deficit for Heerenveen, briefly reigniting the suspense. Despite this scare, PSV managed to maintain their lead and secure an essential victory after a challenging period. With this win, the Eindhoven club temporarily closes the gap to five points behind Ajax at the top of the league. Meanwhile, Saibari continues to establish himself as a key asset for his team.
