Wow, what a home defeat for PSV Eindhoven!
Twente outplayed PSV by an enormous margin in the first half. And the Enschede team succeeded in everything they did in that interval.
Being up 4-0 at half-time meant certain victory for the guests. But, much to their credit, PSV tried to get some goals back. And, ha, ha, Twente was hitting them back as soon as they were managing to score any: 1-4, 1-5; 2-5, 2-6.
Anyway, what this means is that Steve McClaren's team passes PSV in the standings, even though they have played one less game. (And gone are the times of the Heracles-Almelo home defeat, 2-3, apparently.)
AZ Alkmaar remains top, but Twente could claim that position if they win their game in hand.
PSV is third, with the same number of points as Twente, but with a vastly inferior goal differential.
Ajax is now also back in the title race, to a great extent, after their victory against Roda, 4-1. They are only three points behind Alkmaar.
