A goal each from Schaken and Pelle in the second-half was enough to help the Rotterdammers see off the Boeren after Lens’ strike put them ahead in the opening half, and the PSV boss admitted that his troops’ deserved to drop points after staging
a poor display on the pitch in the second-half.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 Eindhoven head coach, d**k Advocaat, was obviously disappointed with his side’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Feyenoord Rotterdam at De Kuip Stadion on Sunday, February 24.
However, the Dutch mentor admitted that his side deserved to drop all three points after putting in a below par showing on the pitch in the second-half of the game.
“We knew beforehand this was a big game, but it looked like the players didn’t realise what was at stake. Although we opened the scoring, we didn’t put in a convincing display”, Advocaat was quoted as saying to the media in the post-match press conference.
The Dutchman, who missed four of his first team regular against the Rotterdam giants, went on to open heartedly admit that the Rotterdammers were the better side throughout the 90 minutes.
“It’s the same old story. We missed four first-team regulars but we can have no excuses for slumping to defeat. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 were the better team in the second half and so we deserved defeat”, Advocaat concluded.
Meanwhile, the Feyenoord boss, Ronald Koeman, was ecstatic to see his side claim all three points against their bitter rivals at home, and stressed that his troops’ performed brilliantly after the break that rewarded them with a deserving victory.
“We came from a goal down to win the game, which is a great achievement. We frequently won the second ball and produced more goal threat. I believe we fully deserved our 2-1 victory over PSV, thanks to a great second-half display”, Koeman said while talking
to journalists in the post-match press conference.
PSV started proceedings away from home brightly, and managed to break the deadlock in the 34th minute through http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jeremain-Lens-c18323.
However, the Rotterdammers staged a brilliant show after the break, and a goal each from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ruben-Schaken-c31854 and Graziano Pelle in the 47th and 68th minute respectively ensured that the home side claim all three points at the end of 90 minutes.
