Ethan Nwaneri (RW) - 7.5/10 - Caused plenty of problems down the right side for PSV and made a number of good runs. Scored the second with a brilliant strike from close range and went close to grabbing a second when he ran through the hosts' defence.

Mikel Merino (ST) - 7.5/10 - Managed to be a trouble for the PSV backline with his physicality helping him hold up play and win duels. Netted the third with a striker's finish into the far post.

Leandro Trossard (LW) - 7/10 - Also got on the scoresheet with a nice lobbed finish from a difficult angle. Caused issues in attack but also did well to help out his side's defence.
