The substitutions were completed, and the game resumed with a renewed sense of urgency.
The players on both sides seemed reinvigorated, their movements became sharper, and their intent clearer to the spectators.
[We're into the final ten minutes of normal time,] Mike said, the tension in his voice reflecting the atmosphere in the stadium. [It's still 3-3 in the Philips Stadion, and this one could go either way]
[The fresh legs are already making an impact,] the co-commentator noted. [Look at Luciano Narsingh—he's chasing everything down, trying to make something happen]
On the pitch, Narsingh darted down the right wing, his pace forcing Gorter to backpedal. He whipped in a dangerous cross, but Reijnen rose highest to head it clear.
[That's good defending from Reijnen,] Mike said. [PSV are really testing AZ Alkmaar now]
Moments later, Beerens picked up the ball on the left for AZ Alkmaar.
