Eran Zehavi scored the third of PSV Eindhoven's five goals in a 0: 5 win over Fortuna Citard yesterday (Sunday).
It was the Israeli striker's sixth goal in the last seven games in all competitions.
"Zahavi scores and works hard for the team, he is fiery," coach Roger Schmidt said at the conclusion.
"He was injured for two months around the winter break and then needed time to get in shape. Now he benefits from the flow in which we play as a team. We play well and there is a lot of movement and creativity when we attack. In addition, players practice more and more of each other."
The Dutch media referred to the great period that the striker is going through, certainly when it comes to scoring goals.
"In the middle of the season they talked about PSV's lack of a real scorer, mentioning the negative record set by Nye for Mempty, the derogatory player who finished as PSV's goal scorer in the 93/94 season with just ten goals. Now Zahavi already has eight goals and he "Leads Eindhoven's table of conquerors (alongside Cody Gakpo) and has seven more league games to avoid entering the record book, and more importantly - help the team win titles," the Volksrenet website said.

"With his goals in the league and in the conference league against Copenhagen, Zehavi silenced for a while the discussion about the striker's position in Eindhoven. The 34-year-old Israeli who came to the Netherlands from China as a great scorer a year and a half ago Focus on it. "
After the team break, PSV will face some important tasks in the coming weeks.
In the Conference League, a double encounter awaits her in the quarter-finals against Leicester City.
The Dutch league is 2 points behind Ajax, with seven games left in the season, and is hoping for the leader to stumble in recent rounds.
In less than a month, they will meet for a head-to-head battle for another title - in the Dutch Cup final.
