PSV Eindhoven beat Sparta Rotterdam 4-2 to win the 2024 Dutch title on Sunday.

PSV clinched their 25th Dutch Eredivisie title with two matches to spare, and it is their first domestic success since 2018.

Ajax, who are in lower ranks this season, are the record holders in the Netherlands' top-tier league with 36 titles.

Visitors Sparta Rotterdam drew the first blood in Eindhoven as Metinho scored in the eighth minute.

But PSV leveled after Said Bakari scored an own goal. Johan Bakayoko, a PSV winger, was on the scoresheet as the Belgian player gave the home team a 2-1 lead in the 26th minute.

A few minutes later, PSV's Olivier Boscagli put the ball into his own net to end the first half 2-2.

In the second half, Boscagli and Jordan Teze scored for PSV as the home team won the match 4-2, and the Dutch title.

Following the home win, PSV have 87 points in 32 matches.

Last season's Dutch champions Feyenoord are currently in the second position with 75 points.
