PSV Respond to Early Twente Opener

Late Drama Seals a Famous Victory

In the 79th minute, Wout Weghorst made amends for his earlier booking by smashing home the equalizer following an assist from Rots.
With the momentum firmly behind them, Twente pushed for a winner. It arrived in the 83rd minute when Daouda Weidmann connected with a Max Bruns pass to fire home with his right foot.
