Malik Tillman, Ricardo Pepi feature as PSV batter Utrecht to extend lead atop Eredivisie

Champions League

FK Crvena Zvezda

PSV Eindhoven

Eredivisie

Heracles

FC Utrecht

<p>PSV's American duo both featured in the Dutch side's 5-2 dismantling of second-placed Utrecht Sunday. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/ricardo-pepi-malik-tillman-psv-comeback-champions-league-victory-shakhtar-donetsk/blt2f708f7c4843b18d" target="_blank">Malik Tillman started in a deeper lying role for Peter Bosz's side</a>, and played all 90 minutes - creating two chances. Ricardo Pepi was less involved, coming off the bench in the 77th minute and failing to register a touch in the opposing box.</p><p>Still, this was a comfortable win for PSV, and might go a long way towards wrapping up the title early. Ismael Saibari opened the scoring after 12 minutes, before Anthony Descotte responded for Utrecht. In the second half, though, PSV exploded. Saibari scored a second, while a double from Guus Til, as well as another from Johan Bakayoko, blew the game open.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Although the Americans had little tangible impact, PSV might have taken a significant step towards repeating as Eredivisie champions. The win extended their lead atop the table to eight points - although Utrecht do have a game in hand. PSV have now won four out of their last five games.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Pepi and Tillman weren't the only Americans on the pitch on Sunday. Utrecht lined up with Paxten Aaronson in central midfield. The U.S. youth national <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/usmnt-paxten-aaronson-goal-utrecht/blt36f20c512dec5b8b" target="_blank">has enjoyed a breakout campaign in the Netherlands to date</a>, but struggled to get involved here - despite having a higher match rating than his two countrymen.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The league leaders face European hopefuls FC Twente on Friday, before turning focus to a Champions League matchup with Brest on Dec. 10.</p>
