Thousands of PSV Eindhoven supporters erupted in celebration this week as the club secured its 26th Dutch Eredivisie title, capping off a season marked by late-game heroics and unexpected twists. The victory, sealed with a 3-1 win over Sparta Rotterdam on the final matchday, ended a nail-biting race against rivals Ajax.
Just weeks ago, Ajax seemed poised to claim the championship, holding a nine-point lead. However, a four-match winless streak—including a stunning 3-0 loss to NEC Nijmegen and a last-minute draw against Groningen—opened the door for PSV. A dramatic 3-2 comeback win against Feyenoord, sealed by Noa Lang's stoppage-time goal, shifted momentum decisively in PSV's favor.
Under the guidance of former Ajax coach Peter Bosz, PSV surged to the top of the table for the first time since February, finishing one point ahead of Ajax. The team celebrated with a trophy parade through Eindhoven, drawing jubilant crowds to the streets.
