It was a battle between City’s loan stars at the top of the Eredivisie on Saturday as FC Twente and PSV Eindhoven played out a 1-1 draw.

Enes Unal, Bersant Celina and Yaw Yeboah all started for FC Twente while Oleksandr Zinchenko came on at the hour mark for PSV.

Unal scored the opening goal of the match, with a clinical finish under PSV keeper Remko Pasveer.

Celina, in the role just behind Unal, was in excellent form for Twente while Yeboah put in a solid showing before being replaced just before the final whistle.

After Zinchenko’s introduction, the Ukrainian had an excellent chance to win the match for Phillip Cocu’s PSV side. Cutting in from the right, Zinchenko curled his effort to the far corner only to see it crash against the bar.

The result leaves PSV in third and Twente sit in seventh.
