Ajax attacker Dusan Tadic rued losing to Tottenham in the Champions League semi-final last season, saying Ajax would be the winners if they made it to the final.
Ajax had a 3-goal advantage before the second half of the second leg of the semi-final, but eventually beaten by Lucas Moura's hat-trick at the last minute of the tie.
"I would give anything if I could wipe that match out of my memory. It won't go out of my mind," said Tadic.
"I'm still looking for the answer to the question of how we could have fallen in that semifinal. If Ajax had taken what belonged to us in the Tottenham tie, we would have defeated Liverpool in the final in May.
"I watched the final in Spain, it was, without any dilemma, one of the worst finals in history. Ajax would not play as poorly as Tottenham, and would be much more inspired than Liverpool."
Ajax got eliminated by Getafe in the UCL last-16 tie this season last week.

Watford would have beaten Liverpool in the UCL final last season but the only problem was they didn't qualify for UCL 😁😁

During transfer window, Ajax turned into a Supermarket for European clubs. If they had won the UCL, they would have turned into a Mega Mall.

Tadic is right, Ajax was on red hot form then So there was a chance they could have beaten Liverpool but sadly you can't change the past.

Its life, its be like that sometimes. Ask, Juventus fans, ask Barcelona, ask Real Madrid, ask Athletico Madrid. This is UCL, not even best clubs in the world are safe. That’s why its the most precious trophy after WC. Most electrifying crowds, most intense matches and best players are found is UCL. Learn from you defeat and comeback stronger next year, this is what you need to win UCL.

The last time they faced each other was in December 7, 1966 😵. I don’t know if Ajax would have won the game, but it would have been a great game.

Well I mean. You v are wrong, because you guys bottled a three goal lead while we made a team bottle a three goal lead. Do you see the difference? Your defence was horrid the day to.

True... That's d worst UCL final ever... If Ajax made it to the finals... They could have put a strong fight in even if Liverpool win.. Everyone will see that battle... Spurs in my opinion didn't put up a good fight and it made d game look less appealing
