PSV will refund fans at Arsenal tie after horrific 1-7 loss at home

The Dutch side were demolished 7-1 by the Gunners in the first leg of the Champions League last 16 tie at Eindhoven, leaving them with a near-impossible task of reaching the quarter-finals of the competition.

Ahead of the second leg on Wednesday night, PSV confirmed that fans attending the Emirates will be given a refund on their ticket, a gesture meant to compensate after last week's horror show.

"After the poor result at home last week, your support and presence are extra appreciated," the club wrote in an email sent to PSV supporters who have purchased a ticket to travel to north London.

With the average ticket being 68 euros, PSV are splashing out more than 200,000 euros to reimburse their fans. Peter Bosz's men are set to be the second Eredivisie team to be knocked out after Feyenoord were eliminated by Inter on Tuesday.
