WAALWIJK, Oct 28 (SW) - A goal by Afellay and two by Arouna Kone gave PSV three points away at RKC Waalwijk. The win means last season's champions stay hot on the trail of league leaders Ajax.

Arouna Kone has been showing his killer instincts lately. Since his move to the Dutch giants last January, the striker failed to make an impact in terms of goals.

But in recent matches, Kone suddenly shows how dangerous he can be in the box.

PSV did not need to go full against RKC Waalwijk, even though the home side was testing the Champions during the opening of the match with some good chances.

PSV regained its composure in the second half, and only needed a fifteen minute spell to break RKC resistance. Ibrahim Afellay opened the score not long after the break, and Kone doubled the lead seven minutes later. RKC was beaten.

Kone added another goal in an injury time counter, making his fifth in just three matches.
