With the mortgage of the Europapokal out of the luggage, PSV traveled to Rotterdam to the Cup final against archrivale Ajax. Trainer Roger Schmidt sent the same eleven in the DE Kuip as at the 1: 2 against Leicester in the quarterfinals of the Conference League into the race - Götze and Max therefore stood in the starting eleven - and then saw how his protégés with core two fights put pressure on the leaders of the Eredivisie.
Ajax, in which Coach Erik Ten Hag surprised with the non-consideration of Sturmtank Haller, was very difficult, but then went after 23 minutes in the lead: Gravenberch dynamically picked up left forward and finally enforced to double pass with clasters from 16 Meters worth seeing flat into the corner to the 1: 0.
The gate was an effective hit. PSV showed himself impressed, had a lot of effort, and was no more than a sparring partner for the Amsterdamer, the ball and opponents controlled but did not say. Mazraoui also had bad luck that his seeing 18-meter shot was collected in the left corner from the VAR because of a breathable offside position of Tadic in the genesis (44.).

The powder of powers, when PSV met twice into the black within 90 seconds: first sangaré extended a free-kick edge by head to Gutierrez (48th), then Gakpo castled a counterattack (50th) - and at once it stood 2: 1 for Eindhoven.
Ajax was demanded, now had to hunt a residue to turn the first pokal defeat against PSV at all. The Dutch Table Guide, who had decided both duels against Eindhoven in the league, but continued with a lack of graduation: Tadic made only the right post (59th) from acute angle, while Mvogo brought Bärenstark against Berghuis (74.).
The will was Ajax, where Haller came for the last 20 minutes, not to be credited, only the Amsterdam retired again and again. The PSV swung himself sent, but did not play their quite existing counter chances and missed the preliminary decision - Bruma grooved (79.), craft hit the latte (87th). So it remained exciting, but not more. The PSV Eindhoven brought the victory over time and cheered after ten-year waiting time the trophy victory.
