On Sunday, March 4, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 Enschede cruised to a thumping 6-2 win over PSV Eindhoven at Philips Stadion on match-day 24.
Prior to this match, PSV had won 10 of their 11 fixtures at home while the remaining encounter had ended in a draw. However, the Tukkers dented the Eindhoven giants’ superb home record with a stunning victory.
The Enschede giants commenced proceedings in a lively manner and took the lead in the ninth minute. Ola John collected http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Rosales’ pass at the left flank before cutting in and firing a low right-footed shot from 25-yards out that found the bottom left
corner of the net.
PSV came close to levelling the score-line seven minutes later. However, Dries Mertens’ effort sailed inches over the crossbar.
In the 19th minute, Willem Janssen’s strike doubled the Tukkers advantage. Luuk de Jong picked out Janssen in the box, and the youngster powered his right-footed shot into the back of the net.
The Eindhoven giants then missed two good opportunities to get back into the game, but http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ola-Toivonen-c28363 failed to hit the target on both occasions and the chances went begging.
The Tukkers showed no mercy and scored their third of the evening in the 35th minute. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281

Five minutes before the half-time whistle, the Tukkers made it 4-0 with De Jong adding his name to the score-sheet. Ola John sent in a good cross and the young striker made no mistake in hitting the back of the net with a diving header.
Six minutes after the half-time break, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Douglas-c11600 received his marching orders for his kick on Toivonen. 
In the 55th minute, Toivonen pulled one back for the Eindhoven giants when he headed Dries Mertens’ free-kick into the back of the net.
However, the Tukkers replied strongly and restored their four-goal lead 16 minutes before full time, when Leroy Fer netted an impressive solo goal despite their numerical disadvantage.
Toivonen netted yet again to reduce the deficit in the 82nd minute, but Janssen wrapped up the match with a superb strike to give the visiting side an impressive 6-2 score-line at the full time whistle.
