PSV Eindhoven retained the Dutch Cup by beating Ajax on penalties in Rotterdam.

Wolves loanee Fabio Silva scored the decisive spot-kick as PSV won 3-2 in the shootout to lift the trophy for an 11th time.

The match had earlier finished 1-1 after extra time with Everton loanee Jarrad Branthwaite’s early own goal for Ajax cancelled out by Thorgan Hazard.

The game was a repeat of the 2022 final which PSV won 2-1.

The result means Ajax are likely to finish the season without a trophy for the first time since 2017-18.

Johnny Heitinga’s side are third in the Eredivisie with four matches remaining, three points behind Ruud van Nistelrooy’s PSV and 11 adrift of leaders Feyenoord.
