Defender Olivier Buscali scored a goal in each net, while his team, PSV Eindhoven, was crowned champion of the Dutch first division for the 25th time after winning at its home Philips Stadium in an atmosphere of joy 4-2 over Sparta Rotterdam on Sunday, ending a drought that lasted six years.
Eindhoven needed one point to win the title after a season in which it dominated the competition, losing only one match in 32 rounds. Although it fell behind early, it succeeded in defeating Sparta, which occupies a position in the middle of the list.
Mitinho put the visitors ahead before Saïd Bakary scored an own goal and then Yohan Bakayoko added another to tip the balance in the home team’s favour.
Buscali put the ball into his own net to make the score 2-2, making Eindhoven feel some tension, but his wonderful shot from a free kick on the right side of the field compensated for the mistake before Jordan Tiese added the fourth goal.
