Matavz, Mertens and Manolev on the mark for PSV

PSV Eindhoven moved to the top of the Eredivisie with a 3-1 win over Vitesse Arnhem. Tim Matavz set PSV on their way with the opener just past the half hour mark, but they had to wait until late on to secure the victory. Dries Mertens doubled the lead for the home side on 76 minutes, but Mike Havenaar set up a tense finale when pulled one back for Vitesse seven minutes from time. Stanislav Manolev put the game beyond Vitesse with a third for PSV in stoppage time. The win moves PSV two points clear at the top of the table, two ahead of AZ Alkmaar who travel to Roda JC Kerkrade on Saturday
