PSV Eindhoven and Eran Zehavi arrived for tonight's game (Sunday) against Ajax at the Johan Cruyff Arena in a great position for them.
A win would have lifted them to the top of the table at the expense of the opponent, giving a lot of quiet to coach Roger Schmidt.
But desires apart, and reality apart.
Ajax, who have conceded just two goals this season, locked the goal from the first minute, proving once again why their attack is the best in Dutch football, perhaps also in the whole of Europe (37 goals in 12 rounds).
Steven Brachhaus (19), Sebastian Haller (56), Anthony (66), Davey Klassen (76) and Dusan Tadic (92) arranged for the champion a particularly humiliating 0: 5 over their main rival for the title.
Zahavi played 90 minutes, but did not provide the goods for PSV.
Eric Tan's team opened a four-point gap at the top.
