what happened to the former Italian striker

Evening of joys and “pains” for the former Napoli player, given what happened in the last few hours. Joy postponed for the former Azzurri footballer.

Today was certainly the day of recoveries in the European football scene, peppered with the mini-match between Udinese and Roma in Italy as well as the match between Brighton and Manchester City in the Premier League. However, what happened in Eredivise particularly ignited the 24 hours of 25 April 2024, where a former Napoli footballer has risked becoming Dutch champion 4 days before the end of the championship. What happened shortly afterwards, however, still strangled the cry in his team’s throat for a while longer.

Lozano bombastic but it’s not enough, what is PSV missing to become Dutch Champion

For large stretches of the evening, a festive air overwhelmed the city of Eindhoven and consequently all the fans PSV, which once again fell like an avalanche on its opponents in the championship. The Dutch team, where the former Napoli player still plays Hirving Lozanohas in fact triumphed for 8 goals to 0 at the home of Heerenveen, further cementing their status as league leaders in Ered uniforms. A gap that is too wide from their pursuers, who in the standings score +9 on Feyenoord but not yet enough for the red and whites to definitively get their hands on the trophy.

The braces from Til and Tillman as well as the goals from Veerman, Bakayoko, De Jong and Van Aanholt were not in fact sufficient to hand the title to Lozano and company, all because of the rules of the Eredivise. In fact, in case of finishing on equal points, the Dutch championship does not reward direct clashes, in which the PSV is ahead of the Feyenoordbut rather the goal difference. With 3 days to go, therefore, the distance of 9 points between the two teams it still allows the Rotterdam club, winners 1-3 against the Go Ahead Eagles, to hope for a triumph, however distanced by the incredible gap also in terms of goals scored/goals conceded.

PSV paradox, virtually champions despite +30 goal difference

As mentioned, due to the rules imposed by the Eredivise, Lozano and its PSV they have not yet graduated as Dutch Champions despite all the factors in their favour. In fact, the goal difference still keeps the team’s hopes alive Feyenoordalthough the numbers read 86-56 in favor of the kids from Eindhoven. In short, an exclamation point the size of a house put on the championship by PSV, who however will have to wait a few more days to be officially elected winner. In particular, until 5 May 2024, when even just a home draw against Sparta, another team from Rotterdam, will be enough to become champion.
