The striker smashed home from close range after a well-worked move to cap off a narrow win in PSV's procession to the Eredivisie crown. It was Pepi's 10th goal of the season.

Brits Abroad: Kane smashes more records in Klassiker win

GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.

Feyenoord head coach Robin van Persie has launched a passionate defence of Raheem Sterling following a wave of criticism directed at the winger after his club debut.
