What the men of Ajax failed to do, the women will do. The Amsterdam women take the KNVB cup at the expense of PSV. In Goffert in Nijmegen, Ajax wins 2-1.
In an attractive first half, the Ajax Women get the most opportunities. Lisan Alkemade of PSV often stands in the way, only the goalkeeper has no answer in the 36th minute to Nadine Noordam’s effort.
Romee Leuchter
PSV are level again in the second half. Danish attacker Amalie Thestrup taps in a cross from the right. A few minutes later Ajax makes itself heard again. Romée Leuchter heads the number two of the competition back into the lead, 2-1. And that turns out to be enough for the profit.
Fifth Pine Cone
Ajax director Edwin van de Sar hands out the Pine Cone to the players of his club. And this means the fifth cup win in ten-year history.
