ROTTERDAM: Leaders PSV Eindhoven suffered a shock 1-0 home defeat by ADO Den Haag in the Dutch league on Saturday after Wesley Verhoek struck in added time.
Verhoek scored from a tight angle to hand PSV their third league defeat of the season after 22 matches, and they could be knocked off the top of the table.
PSV, who struck a late winner themselves last week against Willem II Tilburg, have 47 points with Twente just one point behind ahead of their trip to Utrecht later yesterday.
Ajax Amsterdam, 2-0 winners over Graafschap Doetinchem on Friday, are in third place with 44 points ahead of Groningen, who hosted Tilburg yesterday, on 40 and ADO on 38.
Sixth-placed AZ Alkmaar, on 37 points, dropped off the pace after losing 2-1 at lowly Excelsior Rotterdam having led 1-0 at halftime through Kolbeinn Sigthorsson’s 10th minute goal.
Tim Vincken equalised with a penalty in the 65th and Jordy Clasie won the match 10 minutes from time when his freekick from 40m was misjudged by Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero.
Heerenveen and NEC Nijmegen played out a 0-0 draw.
