Tim Matavz, Dries
Mertens and Stanislav Manolev scored to lift PSV Eindhoven to a
3-1 home win over Vitesse Arnhem and send them top of the Dutch
league on Friday.
Matavz grabbed the first after 30 minutes, netting a rebound
after goalkeeper Piet Velthuizen could only block a powerful drive
from Zakaria Labyad.
Vitesse attacked more after the break and Mertens finished a
counter-attack with a fierce shot into the top corner before
Mike Havenaar pulled one back seven minutes from time.
Manolev sealed victory for PSV in stoppage-time.
PSV are top with 41 points after 19 matches.
