PSV’s Stellar Performance Against Liverpool Highlights Emerging Talents

PSV made a significant impression this week with a commanding 1-4 victory over Liverpool FC. One of the standout players was Anass Salah-Eddine, who impressively won 80% of his duels against his direct opponent, Mohamed Salah.

Henk Spaan, writing for Het Parool, noted, “Jerdy Schouten was the standout performer against Liverpool, although Joey Veerman also shone in the second half.” He further commented on PSV’s tactical approach, stating, “Arne Slot seemed to overlook the necessity of applying pressure on these two central midfielders—one of whom was positioned defensively. By applying pressure, mistakes can be induced, as demonstrated by the concept of decision-making speed.”
