On Thursday, Eran Zehavi returned to play after more than two months in which he was injured, when he came on as a substitute in PSV Eindhoven's victory over Telstar in the Cup.
Against the background of the uncertainty about his future, today (Sunday) Zehavi was included for the first time since the injury of PSV's staff in the Dutch league - in the season game against Ajax - and came up to play as a substitute in the 87th minute.
Zehavi's team came into the game leading the league by a point over the champions from Amsterdam - but they lost 2: 1 and lost first place at the end of the 20th round.
Now Ajax are looking down on PSV with a two-point gap and a huge goal difference (5:61), which gives them an advantage in a situation of equality at the end of the season.
Zehavi did not start in the roster of Roger Schmidt and saw from the bench Brian Robbie raises Ajax to a 0: 1 advantage after 34 minutes.
Ruby, who had received treatment earlier, could not continue and was replaced immediately after the goal.
In the second half Mario swung a flat kick to the corner and equalized to 1: 1 for PSV (53).

The moment of controversy of the game came in the 74th minute when Nussair Mazrawi returned the advantage to Ajax with a wonderful goal for connections, but according to PSV officials at the beginning of the move that led to the goal the ball seemed to go out of bounds when he was with Daley Blind.
After a VAR test the goal was confirmed and Ajax celebrated 1: 2 at Phillips Stadium.
¿Salió o no salió?
For the VAR no ... y hay goal from Noussair Mazraoui for the 2-1 win over Ajax PSV in the Netherlands.
