PSV travelled to Rotterdam for the clash and impressed.
“It was quite an easy victory in the end. The lads kept their discipline throughout the game. We were always the better side during the match,” said Rutten.
“The team is still getting better and confidence is growing after matches like this one. It is crucial for us to stay alert, though. We are not an easy team to beat if everybody stays focussed.
“I kind of expected us to have a difficult match after the break following our game in Prague last Thursday. However, we never did any crazy things on the pitch and did not allow them the space to cause us trouble.
“We could have even scored two or three more goals if we had shown some better finishing. However, I can only give the lads a compliment for their performance today, as they were outstanding.”
