PSV Eindhoven have romped to a 3-0 victory over Groningen at the Amsterdam ArenA to lift the Dutch Super Cup.

Following a slow start to the match, PSV took the lead in the 25th minute when captain Luuk de Jong was picked out by Santiago Arias, before guiding a header into the far corner.

Groningen soon had a chance to grab a quick equaliser, but after being found unmarked inside the box, Michael de Leeuw could only place his low effort straight at Jeroen Zoet.

De Jong then drilled a strike wide and Jeffrey Bruma fired a long-range shot off target, as PSV looked to double their advantage.

However, Groningen almost levelled the scores just before half time when Bryan Linssen's powerful strike from a tight angle came crashing back off the post.

PSV held onto their lead going into the break and within five minutes of the second half, they extended their advantage when Adam Maher latched onto Davy Propper's flick, before bursting to the edge of the box and drilling a low strike across the keeper and into the bottom corner.

The Dutch champions soon opened up a three-goal lead, as Jurgen Locadia's delivery fell kindly for De Jong, who crashed a volley into the net for his second of the match.

Andres Guardado had the chance to score a fourth for PSV in the closing stages, but his weak penalty was saved by Sergio Padt.

It mattered little to the final result as PSV held on to claim their first Super Cup triumph in three years.
