Feyenoord Rotterdam’s Mario Been ecstatic with a win over PSV Eindhoven – Dutch Eredivisie news
Mario Been, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 Rotterdam manager, was ecstatic with his teams’ superb performance in the 3-1 win over PSV Eindhoven at the Feijenoord Rotterdam on Sunday, April 24. After the 10-humiliation at the hands of the same opposition earlier in the season,
Been’s men were the underdogs coming in to this match. However, De Stadionclub staged a dominant show against the ten-man PSV to bag all three points.
PSV started the match impressively and came close to taking the lead in the opening ten minutes of the match, but Stanislav Manolev’s powerful strike hit the crossbar and saved the home side from conceding an early goal.
The outfit from Rotterdam took the lead through Georgino Wijnaldum after 27 minutes. Diego Biseswar’s cross found Wijnaldum in the box, who made no mistake in heading home his side’s first goal. After the opening goal, the home side dominated the proceedings
and the visitors started to show their frustration with harsh tackles.

his troops staged a better show than http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 on the field and were rewarded with a win.
Been said, “The referee's decision to dismiss [PSV midfielder Orlando] Engelaar was perhaps a bit harsh. We did not win the game because of that red card though. We outplayed PSV in every area of the game.”
The 47-year-old tactician was especially delighted with Leroy Fer’s performance. The tactician praised all his midfielders for extra effort that secured all the points for his side in front of their home crowd.
Been added, “Leroy Fer was very strong in midfield and won a lot of important challenges. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcel-Meeuwis-c23521 also deserves some credit. He intercepted a lot of balls and is very important to keeping this team together.”
De Stadionclub are currently placed 10th in the league table, trailing the last UEFA Europa League play-offs spot by a solitary point. With six points left to play for in the season, the outfit from Rotterdam have every right to remain optimistic
for a Europa Leauge play-offs berth.
Six weeks earlier, Been had stated that he is aiming to play in the Europa League next season. While many believed that his troops had no chance of climbing up to eighth spot in the league table, Been has turned fortunes for De Stadionclub and the players
now looking absolutely confident of achieving the preset objectives.
