disappointing final match-day at Phillips Stadion
By: j | May 5th, 2009PSV’s farewell day at Phillips Stadion for Dwight Lodeweges, Jason Culina and Jan Wouters ended in disappointment as they played N.E.C. to a 1-1 draw.
Received well by a packed Philips Stadion Dwight Lodeweges, Jason Culina and Jan Wouters were honoured for their service to the club. Sadly the last moments of the match were not befitting of the day and PSV gave away the three points. The opening forty-five minutes was marked with well managed midfield play and whilst PSV had a series of notable scoring chances they could find the back of the net. However the host took the lead before the hour when Milano Koenders was adjudged a penalty after fouling Danko Lazović in the area. The Serbian international stepped-up and pounded the ball into the back of the net giving PSV the 1-0 lead yet in his celebration, took his shirt off and naturally received a booking. The negative turn of events wasn’t limited there as six minutes later he received his second booking for a handball and now PSV was playing a man down. The complexion of the match had definitely changed and with ten minutes remaining, discipline was long forgotten as Edison Méndez received a deserved red-card for a positively dreadful challenge of Lasse Schøne. Try as they may to fend off N.E.C., Tim Janssen found the equalizer deep into added-time.
