Ajax tore Champions League holders Real Madrid to shreds on Tuesday, securing a 5-3 aggregate triumph with a huge away win. Real Madrid's loss isn't accidental. AFers say never underestimate Dutch teams:
especially by people of my age (25) or younger. They don’t know the history of the Dutch league/teams. That they were big teams in Europe in the past. Feyenoord, Ajax and PSV all won the Europa cup/CL. They delivered/had Some amazing players, but since the big money infected football we couldn’t keep up with the big leagues. All our players got stolen or bought straight away. And at the end of this season both PSV and Ajax Will be bought empty, so we can never build a team. It's sad we can’t enjoy these players as we could in the past. Hopefully, we can make a comeback, now that they pay big money for talented players.
Btw If you like watching the Dutch league for young talents/upcoming stars, you should keep an eye on Ihattaren at PSV. He just became 17 a few weeks ago and already had his first place at the starting 11. Also, he won the EC with the Dutch national team under 17 in 2018. Everybody in the Netherlands believes that he will become the next superstar in football.
I am here to talk/discuss football and not to talk trash of spread negativity. I am happy I can talk to Some of you Guys or girls about the Dutch league now and then. I just enjoy the beauty of football. I wished we had a big league, but I am also happy with our league. Seeing young upcoming talents and see them become better and end up as great players. Also, the Dutch league is fun to watch, a lot of goals and teams trying to play attacking football, but it‘s not of a high level for most of the games. Only matches between PSV, Feyenoord and Ajax are of a higher level.
It was just admiring what a brave and excellent game this young Ajax team were playing at Santiago Bernabeu, they didn't have anything to lose, they played with their hearts, with passion, with incredible team-spirit what was reflected on the pitch, they showed brilliance! After this match, they will be praised by the whole football world and that will be well deserved!
De Jong proved why he will wear Barça jersey next season He is ball control, his football creativity, his technique is wonderful, he will fit just perfectly in Barça style. Neres played amazing, Tagliafico and De Ligt too..... eh, the whole team were incredible. Real were totally outplayed and crushed at their home ground, this defeat will certainly hurt but it should be used to make drastic changes in Real, not just in the team but in board leadership, they should do the whole reorganization and restart Real completely! Congratulations Ajax, good luck in quarterfinals, keep playing your brilliance!
