    PSV secured a dramatic 4:3 home win against Heracles in Eindhoven during matchday 16 of the Eredivisie, with Croatian international Ivan Perišić playing a key role off the bench by providing an assist.​

    PSV took a quick 2:0 lead through two first-half penalties converted by Pepi and Saibari in the 20th and 32nd minutes. Heracles pulled one back via Hornkamp’s spot-kick in the 6th minute of first-half stoppage time, making it 2:1 at halftime.​

    After an hour of play, the visitors equalized at 2:2 with a goal from Kulenović, signaling a tough fight for PSV’s three points. Perišić entered the game immediately after that goal, bolstering the hosts’ attack.​

    Just minutes after the substitution, Perišić assisted Veerman in the 70th minute for a 3:2 lead. Heracles fought back once more, with Hornkamp scoring his second in the 73rd to tie it at 3:3.​

    PSV ultimately prevailed, as Til netted the winner in the 81st minute, with the final score 4:3.​

    This victory keeps PSV firmly at the top with 43 points, nine clear of second-placed Feyenoord (who have a game in hand), while NEC sits third on 28 points and Heracles languish in 16th with 14.​
