PSV beats BATE in Champions League thriller
PSV holds the advantage in its Champions League play-off after a thrilling 3-2 victory at BATE that was sealed by an 89th-minute header from substitute Donyell Malen.
BATE took a surprise lead in just the ninth minute of the tie at Borisov Arena when Jasse Tuominen turned a low cross from Aleksandar Filipovic through the legs of Netherlands goalkeeper Jeroen Zoet.
The Eredivisie side was level before the break when referee Felix Zwayer gave a penalty for a handball by Nemanja Milunovic, Gaston Pereiro drilling home the penalty despite Denis Scherbitski diving the right way.
The comeback was seemingly complete in the 62nd minute, Hirving Lozano collecting a pass from captain Luuk de Jong and bending home a delightful curling effort from 25 yards.
BATE had other ideas, however, 37 year-old Alyaksandr Hleb firing in a volley in the 88th minute that looked certain to have left the match finely balanced ahead of next week's second leg.
But PSV decisively retook the lead just a minute later to spark joyous celebrations, Malen rising highest in the box to crash a header from Angelino's cross past a helpless Scherbitski.
