Live: Ajax – PSV 1-2
Live: NEC – Telstar 0-1
PSV then takes the lead. Myron Boadu fumbles the ball into Ajax’s goal from a cross from Dennis Man.
Telstar takes the lead, heavily against the odds, but who cares. It is the man in form, El Toro van Velsen-Zuid. From close range, Sem van Duijn shoots the 0-1 against the ropes.
A dot of an opportunity for Bryan Linssen. The NEC attacker only goes for goalkeeper Ronald Koeman Jr. off. The ball goes just wide of the goal.
The White Lions can breathe a sigh of relief, but they need to be careful in Nijmegen. Anthony Correia’s team appears sporadically in the NEC half.
Steven Berghuis and Youri Regeer are leaving for Ajax. Oscar Gloukh and Sean Steur make an appearance against PSV.
Steven Berghuis gets a free shooting opportunity from the right. He dribbles in and takes a shot. The effort just flutters over the PSV goal. Finally a bit of revival in the Johan Cruijff Arena in the second half.
Three chances for NEC in the opening phase. For the time being, defense is mainly for Telstar in De Goffert.
The second half starts in the Johan Cruijff Arena. Can Ajax pull off the victory?
The handball players of VZV did not manage to beat VOC in Amsterdam-Noord. The second semi-final ends in 28-27, meaning the Amsterdam team eliminates the national champion. The opponent in the final on Saturday, May 9 is SEW. The West Frisians eliminate top favorite Kwiek with a 21-18 victory.
Excelsior is almost certain of a longer stay in the Eredivisie. The team of coach Ruben den Uil won 3-2 at FC Groningen in the final phase and thus rose to shared thirteenth place in the rankings. Excelsior defeated FC Utrecht 5-0 in front of its own audience on Sunday.
Due to the victory of the Kralingers, the gap with FC Volendam has increased to three points and four with Telstar two matches before the end. It is positive that both clubs will still take action.
It is half time in the Johan Cruijff Arena, where there is light applause from the stands after the first half. Ajax got the better of it after a very quick goal (35 seconds) and made it 1-1 via Anton Gaaei. It then has the greatest opportunities to increase the score.
There is another great opportunity for Ajax. From a high cross from Mika Godts, Josip Sutalo heads the ball towards the goal and Youri Regeer can extend. The ball is turned.
Jorthy Mokio gets a good shooting opportunity moments later. His effort misses the target.
Shame… Kasper Dolberg gets the ball on a silver platter. The Dane only forgets to shoot the ball behind Matej Kovar, who makes a good save. Emotionally, an Ajax goal is more likely to hang in the air than a PSV goal.
Ajax has had control over PSV in recent minutes and is dominant. It just cannot yet convert it into great opportunities. Lucas Rosa is now lying on the ground with cramps. The returned Takehiro Tomiyasu is warming up.
Rosa can continue after injury treatment.
After the opening goal, Ajax gets more and more chances. Mika Godts just bumped into Matej Kovar and on the rebound a PSV defender deflected Kasper Dolberg’s shot. The match is off to a wonderful start.
Steven Berghuis comes through dangerously on the right a little later after a combination with Kasper Dolberg. Berghuis’ pass is just intercepted, otherwise Mika Godts has a free passage.
Out of nowhere, Ajax is level with PSV. Anton Gaaei drives the ball hard into the goal from outside the box. Just before that, Mika Godts is able to score, but he is driven too far to the side. The goal comes from the subsequent corner.
It is mainly due to PSV that it is only 0-1 in this phase. The people of Eindhoven get chance after chance.
For example, Couhaib Driouech misses an opportunity in front of an open goal.
The ball is in Ajax’s net within a minute. A long throw-in from PSV is extended and headed into the goal at the far post by Ricardo Pepi.
The ball rolls into the Johan Cruijff Arena.
NAC Breda can hardly prevent relegation from the Eredivisie. The Brabanders held out for a long time with one man less at FC Utrecht, but still lost in the final phase: 2-0.
Dani de Wit headed Utrecht ahead from close range in the 88th minute. The linesman flagged for offside, but that was not the case. In injury time, Adrian Blake scored the second goal.
With two games to go, NAC is five points behind Telstar, which is sixteenth. Numbers 17 and 18 (Heracles Almelo) are relegated directly.
