PSV win seven-goal thriller, Ajax lose to Utrecht
Stefan Thesker scored an injury-time own goal as Eredivisie leaders PSV Eindhoven moved eight points clear with a dramatic 4-3 win over FC Twente.
PSV had been pegged back three times at the Philips Stadion and looked to be heading for a draw until Twente captain Thesker inadvertently diverted Jurgen Locadia's cross past goalkeeper Jorn Brondeel a minute into stoppage time.
German defender Thesker had earlier equalised Locadia's opener before Twente again drew level when Thomas Lam cancelled out a penalty from PSV's Marco van Ginkel.
Luuk de Jong then made it 3-2 to the hosts before Finnish midfielder Fredrik Jensen appeared to have earned the 14th-placed visitors a point, only for Thesker's late mistake to deny them.
Victory extended PSV's advantage at the top after second-placed Ajax's four-match winning run was brought to an end by a surprise 2-1 home defeat to Utrecht.
