Barcelona 4-0 PSV: 5 Takeaways

#2 PSV showed a lot of fight

PSV continued fighting for 90 minutes despite losing heavily

Days like these are the reason why the phrase ‘gallant losers’ still has relevance. On Tuesday, PSV may have lost but the defeat came against a far superior and classy opponent.

The Dutch side came into the fixture as underdogs and, although they lost by a huge margin, they still went home with their heads held up high. The 4-0 score line was deserving for Barca, but it was also harsh on the visitors.

PSV showed a lot of fight and in players like Hirving Lozano, Luuk de Jong and Steven Bergwijn, the club has a bright future. They may have lost, but they showed glimpses of a side that has quality and can trouble any top European side on any day.
