US defender Sergiño Dest grabs the equalizer as PSV draws 1-1 with Shakhtar in Champions League
EINDHOVEN, Netherlands (AP) — Right back Sergiño Dest scored an equalizer, helping PSV Eindhoven secure a 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in their inaugural Champions League match on Thursday. The Venezuelan midfielder Gleiker Mendoza netted the opening goal for Shakhtar with a corner kick before the break. Dest's well-timed run in the second half came after he was fouled near the halfway line, leading to a controversial goal awarded following a quick video review.
Despite Shakhtar's protest, the goal stood, resulting in a disappointing 1-1 draw for the Dutch side.
