Ryan Thomas has opened his account by scoring PSV’s third goal in a 4-0 win over ADO Den Haag.
All Whites star Ryan Thomas has shown his versatility by scoring his first goal of the season for the Dutch Eredivisie from an unknown position.
The New Zealand midfielder launched PSV’s third goal from the edge of the penalty area at home during a comfortable 4-0 win over ADO Den Haag on Monday (NZT) after being asked to cover absent right-back Denzel Dumphries.

But Thomas didn’t look out of place on defense, coming out with a well-deserved goal after rookie Richard Ledezma attacked him on the edge of the area in the 84th minute.
The 25-year-old Thomas fired a powerful right-footed shot away from ADO den Haag goalkeeper Luuk Koopmans to make it 3-0.
It was Thomas’ first goal for PSV since February, when he headed in against ADO Den Haag.
Monday’s 4-0 win brought PSV to third place in the Eredivisie standings, two points behind leaders Ajax.
