Journalists in the Netherlands were not at all pleased with the game played by Dennis Man (27 years old) in the match PSV – Bayern Munichscore 1-2, after which the team of the Romanian international left the Champions League.
Dennis Man started in the right wing of the Dutch attack, but his performance was “pale”. He managed to make himself noticed very few times, which prompted coach Peter Bosz to substitute him at half-time.
What grade did Dennis Man get for the game played in PSV – Bayern Munich
Those from Voetbal Zone, a major sports newspaper in the Netherlands, gave Dennis Man only note 5, the youngest in his team, alongside Paul Wanner.
They summed up Man's game in a few words:
“Peter Bosz came on at half-time, replacing Dennis Man, who had frequently lost possessionwith the talented Noah Fernandez. PSV started the second half strongly, but conceded a goal after about an hour of play”.
Thus, Dennis Man ends the European season with 8 matches played in the Champions League. He scored twice, both goals coming in PSV's resounding 6-2 win over Napoli.
The Dutch finished their unique League group in 28th place with 8 points. A draw with Bayern would have taken them into the play-offs.
Dennis Man arrived at PSV Endhoven in the summer when he was transferred from Parma for €8.5 million. He collected 24 matches this season, during which he managed 6 goals and 6 decisive assists.
