It was a painful afternoon for Ajax in Utrecht, where no less than 4-0 was lost. Afterwards, both Francesco Farioli and Kenneth Taylor were remarkably mild for their own team, although they also acknowledged that this defeat was a painful one. But the Zeperd was not the reason for panic, the two thought. “It is not nice to lose 4-0 of course, let that be clear,” said Taylor. “But we shouldn’t go crazy now.”
