PSV vs Roda JC Match Preview
Fred Rutten hopes to hand Ibrahim Afellay a happy farewell in his last match for PSV. The PSV pedigree will move to FC Barcelona in the winter break and PSV will play his last home match against Roda JC of 2010 on Sunday. On Wednesday PSV will travel to Kerkrade to take on the same opponent in the national Cup tournament.“With the support of the fans from the east side, I think we will hand Ibrahim a great farewell match”, the PSV coach said. Afellay played 158 league matches for the club that raised him. He won the league title in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and the Cup in 2005.
Roda JC have only won five times at PSV, but the visitors took away three points in four of the last seven League matches in Eindhoeven. This season Harm van Veldhoven’s team are doing well above expectations, having collected 32 points from their first 18 matches which is 17 more than last season at the same stage.
PSV vs Roda JC Match Report
PSV have grabbed the Winter title in the Eredivisie with a 3-1 home win over Roda JC in the only not cancelled match on Sunday. The Eindhoven crowd said farewell to Ibrahim Afellay, who will move to FC Barcelona in January. Coach Fred Rutten gave the fans a chance to cheer for the captain a last time when he replaced him symbolically with 17-year-old Zakaria Labyad who set to be Afellay’s successor at PSV in the coming years.Jeremain Lens handed PSV a quick lead in the fifth minute on Sunday, but the home team got a big blow when striker Jonathan Reis was taken of with a severe looking injury. Roda took advantage of PSV’s confusion and Anouar Hadouir (24‘) fired home a free kick for 1-1.
In the second half PSV overpowered Roda and Reis’ subsitute Marcus Berg scored 2-1 from a Lens assist in the 53rd minute. A Balázs Dzsudzsák goal wrapped up the match in the 68th minute.
Roda already have a chance for revenge when PSV visits Kerkrade in the national Cup tournament on Wednesday. Whether Hadouir will play, is doubtful. The Roda ace went of with a painful knee six minutes from time.
