Dennis Man scored the first goal for PSV

Pec Zwolle and PSV Eindhoven, the band at which the Romanian international Dennis Man evolves, met at the Mac3park stadium, in a duel with the number #8 of Eredivisie.

For the PSV he opened the scoring Ishmael Saibari (23 '), then followed the moment of the Romanian: Dennis Man scored his first goal in the Netherlands (40') and later contributed with a decisive pass for Joey Vemer (67 '). The Brazilian Flamingo closed the table in extensions (90+2 ').

With this victory, the team from Eindhoven remains in second place, with 19 points, on a par with the leader Feyenoord, who has not yet played the match from this stage.

Editorial Cosmin Nistor »Dennis” The “Man,” problematic “of Parma, but the decisive from Eindhoven

Dennis Man has shown once again the ability we all know: to be altruistic when needed and has support, but also more involved, both defensive and in the left-footed incursions. The right leg still puts “obstacle”but when the left has such quality, somehow the balance is balanced.

The Romanian, endless from the lot of Mircea Lucescu, managed to pass his name on the table for the first time of marking in Eredivisie, but his altruism was driving and to decisive passes, some unpopular by colleagues.

It seems that the footballer from the European U21 championship, or that footballer from the last season at FCSB, has recovered. I saw at Dennis Man the naturalness with which he “plays” with the opposing defense.

Even though we are talking about a Zwolle quoted somewhere in the leader of Romania, Craiova University, Man's performance shows who cheated when labeled as a player below series A. Dennis “The” Man confirmed again that he has solid arguments to be decisive in a top team, with claims of the same level.

Sure it is fair to add the context: Zwolle only produced 0.12 XG and, realistically, would not catch the top 3 in Liga 1. But MAN's performance should not be forgotten in the Champions League against Bayer Leverkusen, when he was among the most active people of PSV.

Moreover, we are talking about a player who has not been debut at Eindhoven and has already begun to create game relationships with colleagues, some who already seem more strong than those from the national team.

On paper, series A is over Eredivisiebut PSV's game is clearly superior to teams like Lazio, Atalanta or even Parma. Man was criticized in Italy that it is below series A, Being the “problem” of the Parma's attack, but the truth seems to be another.

If in the last season at Parma he has collected 4 goals and 4 decisive passes in 32 matches, now, at a champion from a top 6 championship, he already has a goal and 2 assists in just 4 matches.

Now there are tests with Moldova and Austria, where Man will have to play both the physical and tactical qualities for the national team. His altruism can be decisive for Louis Munteanu or Daniel Bîrligea.

If Dennis had the strength and quality of the right foot at the same level, now, we would probably have talked about Man's developments at a champion in a top 3 European championships.
