AMSTERDAM, Feb 3 (Reuters) – AZ Alkmaar opened up the Dutch title race as striker Danny Koevermans scored a late goal to seal a stunning 3-2 win at leaders PSV Eindhoven on Saturday.
PSV, who suffered their first home defeat since December 2004, remain top with 56 points from 23 matches but are now only six points ahead of second-placed Alkmaar.
Ajax meets Feyenoord later today and this is a great chance for Ajax to cut down the current 8-point gap between Ajax and PSV.
The problem of course is that AZ is too close to Ajax. Ajax will need to win at Amsterdam today if the team is to retain its 1-point lead over AZ.
The Eredivisie is not over yet.
