PSV Eindhoven edge closer to Eredivisie title with dominant win over FC Twente

PSV Eindhoven edged closer to winning the Eredivisie title by thrashing FC Twente 5-0 at the De Grolsch Veste.

First-half goals from Luuk de Jong, Jeffrey Bruma and skipper Georgino Wijnaldum, and a second-half brace from Memphis Depay cemented all three points for the away side, putting them 15 clear of second-placed Ajax.

De Jong scored the opening goal after latching onto Wijnaldum's rebounded shot to finish easily with his left foot for his 16th goal in 27 appearances for PSV this season.

The visitors continued to dominate the game and doubled their lead shortly after as Bruma was left unmarked from a corner to head home 10 minutes before the break.

Dutch winger Wijnaldum made it three on the stroke of half time, cutting inside and finishing neatly on his left foot.

Depay scored his 18th and 19th goals of the season in quick succession, firstly burst through to beat Sonny Stevens in the Twente net and then getting the better of the keeper again three minutes later.

PSV now only need eight more points from their remaining fixtures to clinch the Eredivisie title.
