Eran Zehavi Celebrates (PSV Eindhoven Official Website) (Reuters)
Eran Zehavi and Eli Desa met tonight (Sunday) for the second “Israeli Derby” of the season in the Netherlands, when this time, unlike the previous time when Mitsa Vitsa celebrated a 1: 2 victory, the Israeli striker of PSV Eindhoven did not score, but provided a great performance And was involved in two of his team’s three goals and helped them make a turnaround on the way to an important 1: 3 in the 23rd round of the Dutch league.
After the big double against Olympiacos, which unfortunately was not enough on the way to a 4: 2 loss in the first game of the last 32 in the Europa League, Zehavi was looking for his seventh goal of the season in the league. On the other hand, Ladassa, who experienced a simply fantastic season, only had four minutes to climb to the top of his team’s cooks’ table when he recorded his fifth cook of the season and set up Albano Breuy the Albanian with an early lead.
Vitesse were the better team in the first half. Desa and his teammates took advantage of the odd lineup in which Roger Schmidt came on, who also left Donil Mullen on the bench, which directly affected the ability of Eran Zehavi, who for long minutes seemed lost and received no assistance from his teammates to the front. But in the second half the creators turned around.
After a bad 45 minutes, Schmidt recovered on his own and sent Donil Mullen and Mario Getze into the fray, in a move that turned out to be one that decided the fate of the tackle and perhaps even saved the coach’s rocking chair. Zahavi played a significant part in Eindhoven’s turnaround, when he cooked for Malen’s equalizer in the 66th minute. In the 86th minute, the Dutch striker cooked up the turnaround for Mario Getza, but the third goal was also entirely Eran Zehavi, who with a great heel delivery led to the cooking of Ryan Thomas Lagza, who completed a double.
Thanks to the win, Eindhoven remains 3 points behind Ajax, which has two games left. On the other hand, Vitsa and Dassah continue to lose height at the top and are already in fifth place after a third consecutive loss and four games without a win.

43 minutes, Eindhoven was miraculously saved: a long ball cut through all of Eindhoven’s embarrassing defense, and Gutierrez committed a foul on Bruya, the visiting striker.

Moroccan Osama Atanna took the kick and squeezed a save from Einhedhoven, the ball bounced back to the Moroccan who kicked to the crossbar.
