AZ Alkmaar held by PSV Eindhoven

February 15, 2009

Dutch leaders AZ Alkmaar had their winning stream come to an end at PSV Eindhoven. The defending champions first conceded two, but then struggled their way back to a 2-2 draw.

AZ took the lead through Gill Swerts on 12 minutes and although keeper Isaksson parried a penalty from De Zeeuw in the 29th, Maarten Martens slammed it home in the rebound.

But former AZ striker Danny Koevermans got one back in the 49th minute, and although the away side seemed to control the match from then on, Koevermans powered another past the keeper with seven minutes to go.

AZ do remain in first place, nine points ahead of FC Twente. PSV are currently third but Ajax, fourth, have a game in hand.
