PSV Eindhoven returned to the top of the Eredivisie after securing an entertaining 5-2 victory over SC Cambuur at Kooi Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Peter Bosz's side made a flying start in Leeuwarden, scoring three times inside the opening 19 minutes through Sven Mijnans and Ruben van Bommel. Cambuur threatened to make a contest of it with goals either side of half-time, but PSV responded at crucial moments before late substitute Ayoni Santos completed the scoring in stoppage time.

Mijnans was the standout performer, scoring twice, including a superb free-kick, while Van Bommel also found the net. Esmir Bajraktarevic and Kodai Sano supplied two assists apiece as PSV produced an impressive attacking display.

The visitors needed just one minute to take the lead. Bajraktarevic delivered a cross into the penalty area, where Mijnans arrived to head home from close range.

PSV doubled their advantage in the 15th minute. Van Bommel provided the assist, setting up Mijnans to finish with his left foot. The goal was initially reviewed by VAR before being confirmed.

Cambuur were struggling to contain PSV's movement and attacking combinations, and the visitors struck again four minutes later. Bajraktarevic turned provider once more, setting up Van Bommel, who finished with his right foot to make it 3-0.

Cambuur eventually found a response in the 41st minute. Nicky Souren collected the ball on the left side of the box and found the bottom corner with a right-footed effort, giving the home side a route back into the contest before half-time.

The home side showed greater attacking intent after the break, while PSV had opportunities to extend their advantage through Van Bommel. Cambuur, however, continued to look for openings and were rewarded in the 78th minute.

Rafik El Arguioui supplied the assist for Iwan Henstra, who finished from the centre of the box to reduce the deficit to 3-2. With the margin down to one goal, PSV suddenly had work to do to protect their lead.

Their response was immediate. Two minutes later, Mijnans stepped up to take a free-kick and produced an excellent left-footed finish into the top-right corner. His second goal of the afternoon restored PSV's two-goal cushion at 4-2.

Cambuur continued to push forward, but PSV held firm. The hosts created further opportunities through Sami Bouhoudane and Ismaël Baouf, only to be denied by goalkeeper Matej Kovár and their own finishing.

PSV had chances to add a fifth before the final whistle, with Esmir Bajraktarevic striking the crossbar in the 69th minute.

The visitors eventually got their fifth in the second minute of stoppage time. Sano delivered a cross following a quick counter-attack, and Santos finished with his right foot from the centre of the box to seal a 5-2 victory.

The result takes PSV back to the summit of the Eredivisie after an emphatic attacking performance. Bosz will be pleased with the five goals and the contributions of Mijnans, Van Bommel and Bajraktarevic, although Cambuur's two second-half goals will offer a reminder that PSV still have defensive work to do.

For Cambuur, the defeat came despite a spirited effort to fight their way back into the match after falling three goals behind inside the opening 19 minutes.
