AMSTERDAM (AP) - Utrecht scored a late equalizer Sunday to hold Ajax to a 1-1 draw, leaving PSV Eindhoven 10 points clear at the top of the Dutch Eredivisie.

Netherlands winger Memphis Depay scored twice Saturday night as PSV, which is closing in on its first league title since 2008, thrashed FC Twente 5-0.

Ajax, which now appears certain to relinquish its title after four straight years as Eredivisie champion, took the lead in the 51st minute through a Ramon Leeuwin own goal but substitute Gevero Markiet levelled in the 85th, just four minutes after coming on as a late substitute. Leeuwin’s miserable afternoon was completed when he was sent off shortly before full time.

Third-placed Feyenoord won 4-1 at AZ Alkmaar to move six points behind Ajax.
