Live: Aja – Tel 1-0
Live: AZ – Gro 3-1
FC Groningen almost makes it exciting in Alkmaar. Fortunately for goalkeeper Jeroen Zoet, the ball is taken away twice in front of the line by a defender. Otherwise Jorg Schreuders or Younes Taha would have made the 3-2.
We started again in Amsterdam and Alkmaar. Are there even more goals in the second half?
The first half is in Amsterdam. Ajax leads against Telstar, but despite all the opportunities for both teams, it is still 1-0.
It is now also peace in Alkmaar, where AZ has a comfortable lead. It is 3-1 there.
FC Groningen does something back against AZ. Marcos interest heads a corner.
Bertrand Traoré is only possible on the Telstar goal after a delicate pass by Youri Baas. The attacker awaits too long and messes up the chance with Ronald Koeman Jr.
A few minutes later is exactly the same scenario. Only gives the ball face to face with Koeman, but this time there is a defender in between.
Steven Berghuis gets plenty of time to head the ball after a pass by Raul Moro, but Ronald Koeman Jr turns the ball feline. In the subsequent attack, the header of Wout Weghorst is just over. Ajax is still keeping Telstar alive for the time being.
AZ seems to be ready with FC Groningen after half an hour. In the meantime it is 3-0 after a header from Troy Parrott (who else?) In the goal via Stijste Resink.
Kees Smit and Sven Mijnans have the 3-0 on the shoe shortly after each other. In both cases, a defender of FC Groningen can just block the shot.
Wout Weghorst can score his second via Raul Moro. Unfortunately for Ajax the ball is high. Telstar is not involved in this phase.
Ajax takes the lead. Steven Berghuis finds Wout Weghorst and the striker finishes cold -blooded. For the rush it is the first time since 2017 that he has made three premier division duels in a row a goal.
Troy Parrott is knocked out in the penalty area by Stijt Resink. The Irishman willingly go to the grass, but the violation seems very light. Parrott scores the penalty and is already making his sixth of the season.
Jeff Hardeveld steams up again on the left. His shot, however, is turned by Vítěslav Jaroš.
AZ takes the lead against FC Groningen at lightning speed. Ernest Poku gives the ball to Denso Kasius and his pass ends in the goal.
Aron Bouwman estimates a ball completely wrong and Milan Zonneveld can walk towards the goal. He loves too long, after which Youri Baas can block the shot.
In the attack then Ajax escapes three times due to a backlog. Wout Weghorst eventually slides the ball on the post.
What can Ajax, Telstar and AZ in their first premier league match?
Telstar will play this afternoon for the fifteenth time in the competition against Ajax. Only once was won, the first time in 1964. The last mutual meeting was in the KNVB cup in 2024. After a difficult match, Ajax won 2-0.
Oscar Gloukh can make his debut on Sunday for Ajax in the home game with Telstar. The midfielder from Israel finished the closing training for the competition in a sold -out Johan Cruijff Arena on Saturday.
Ajax took over from RB Salzburg at the beginning of this month. The international then had to wait for a work permit. He trained for the first time on Friday with the team of coach John Heitinga.
Ko Itakura did not train on Saturday. Ajax took over the Japanese defender from Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday. For him it is still waiting for a work permit.
