Marco van Ginkel got after the midweek defeat in the Cup against FC Utrecht (1-3) much criticism. The Chelsea midfielder was hired in that match also not impress, but left in Utrecht indeed seen to be an asset. Besides the fact that he took the 0-2 on his behalf, he made continuous threat for its depth and ability to walk. In addition, Van Ginkel also stood his ground defensively.

It also proved to be a good move to have been Phillip Cocu to leave Van Ginkel. The PSV coach hold other positions or hard in his team. ‘Cup Keeper’ Remko Pasveer, Joshua Brenet, Jetro Willems, Jürgen Locadia and Luciano Narsingh were passed. Jeroen Zoet, Santiago Arias, Nicolas Isimat-Mirin, Florian Jozefzoon and Gastón Pereiro were their replacements. Additionally Cocu PSV decided to play with three defenders.

Arias was pretty steaming and shoved in the face of Robbin Ruiter through the legs of the goalkeeper inside. Seven minutes later the score was doubled by Van Ginkel, which hit went from a meter or sixteen when he received the ball at his feet with the necessary fortune.

Sébastien Haller made Thursday much impression in the cup match against PSV, but came Sunday hardly involved.

Isimat-Mirin, Jeffrey Bruma and Héctor Moreno on the two Utrecht-strikers Sébastien Haller and Ruud Boymans – he replaced the injured Patrick Joosten – FC Utrecht managed to be hardly dangerous. In midfield were Yassin Ayoub and Bart Ramselaar in the first half recognize their superior in Jorrit Hendrix and Van Ginkel.

In the second half FC Utrecht forward, however, quite the pressure. PSV, where Bruma in the rest because of an ankle injury, was replaced by Ward, at the same time thus did not come to play football, but gave defensive hardly anything away. Pass from a corner was the home team for the first time close to scoring when Boymans hit the crossbar with his header. With that opportunity seemed the spell broken, for good opportunities for Haller and Mark van der Maarel soon followed.

Schaars for Jozefzoon put PSV in the final stage of the competition all out to the lead on the pulling stripe. Because this managed PSV take first place again Ajax. The difference between the two clubs is one point. FC Utrecht is ninth, but the gap with number four Feyenoord is only four points.
