De Graafschap 0 - PSV Eindhoven 1 (64')

Sports

PSV broke the 1971 Ajax record for longest streak of not conceding a goal in the Dutch league: 1083 minutes (and counting). We're currently leading by one goal (Alex, 20') and looking for our twelfth consecutive shutout. Assuming that win, our balance almost halfway the season: fifteen games played, thirteen wins, two draws, no losses.

(Make that leading by 0-2, van Bommel just scored a penalty.)

Here's a list of the games that made up the record-breaking streak. Not sure if the numbers add up actually, not sure if injury times counts and all that.

8/28: PSV @ NAC Breda 2-2 (no goal conceded the last 40')
9/11: RKC Waalwijk @ PSV 0-1
9/18: PSV @ NEC 3-0
9/25: SC Heerenveen @ PSV 0-4
10/2: FC Groningen @ PSV 0-3
10/16: PSV @ ADO Den Haag 2-0 (only 70' played due to disturbances)
10/24: Ajax @ PSV 0-2
10/29: PSV @ FC Utrecht 0-0
11/7: PSV @ FC Den Bosch 3-0
11/13: Willem II @ PSV 0-1
11/21: PSV @ Vitesse 2-0
11/27: FC Twente @ PSV 0-2
12/4: PSV @ De Graafschap 2-0 (after 66')
