# 2005–06 PSV Eindhoven season

During the 2005–06 Dutch football season, PSV competed in the Eredivisie.

## Season summary

Despite the loss of several key players following their unexpected run to the UEFA Champions League semi-final, PSV secured a second successive Eredivise title. However, they were unable to defend the KNVB Cup, losing to Ajax in the final, and were knocked out in the Champions League first knockout round by Lyon.
At the end of the season, manager Guus Hiddink, who had concurrently managed the Australia national team, left to manage the Russia national team. He was succeeded as PSV manager by Ronald Koeman.
