PSV lose 1-0 at Leipzig after Perisic misses penalty

PSV lost 1-0 away to RB Leipzig in the second round of the Champions League league phase.

Ivan Perisic missed a first-half penalty after a video review led the referee to award it for a Leipzig defender’s handball.

The spot kick came in the 19th minute, but Leipzig’s goalkeeper saved Perisic’s shot.

Brajan Gruda scored Leipzig’s winner about 15 minutes from time, with his shot deflecting off Perisic.

PSV had chances to score, but a late header was ruled out for offside.

The defeat leaves PSV with one point from its first two Champions League matches.

The teams’ next steps in the competition are not stated.

Voor PSV is het natuurlijk goed, maar het is een beetje een belachelijke penalty, een belachelijke regel.
