Not to worry about the short rest time -- at that age they don't know what tired means.

I hope PSV was watching and cursing at the way Ajax pulled out the game near the very end. Turnabout, and all that.

That was totally stupid -- all we had to do was hold on til the end of the game.

Huntelaar comes through with a fantastic goal turning his man and volleying home. Serves the team of foulers and time wasters right, even though we have done little in this game.

Halftime and I'm getting more pessimistic by the minute -- hard to see where a goal is going to come from. Neres is pretty sub par and the rest are barely holding their own -- the only one having a decent game so far is Blind. Hope Ten Hag has a plan B for the second half.

The boys have to forget all about the excitement of winning the Juve game and take this one super seriously. They have to approach it with the same resolve as if they were playing vs PSV for the title on the last day of the season. Anything less could lead to an unpleasant surprising result.

Saw the highlights, as well. Agree about Traore -- looking forward to seeing how he does when he moves up to the big team -- which he appears ready to do. Not too sure about how Brobbey will do when he moves up -- a lot of what he has going for him at the younger levels is his size for his age -- th...

Well, looking for a silver lining from PSV's win this weekend -- even though they wound up winning the game (as seemed inevitable right from the start of the second half), at the end of the day we at least added +3 to the goal difference factor.

Really nice counterattack goal by deG -- then had a golden chance to go up 0-2, but the set up pass was a little too slow and the defender was able to get enough of a block on the shot to have it go wide. That was evened out when Lozano shot wide from inside the box at a wide open net. We'll see wha...

Loss to PSV was a typical Ajax loss -- had the better of the scoring chances by far, but could not put the ball in the net -- the other team gets *one* dangerous chance all game -- make it -- and win the game. Grrrr.

...I suspect ten Hag goes with the same starting 11 for the first half and then makes some subs since Ajax need to win. Point taken about resting players -- but another consideration is maintaining our goal difference advantage. Assuming a worst case scenario in which PSV win all their remaining ga...

A real nail biter of a 2nd half -- Vitesse went ahead 2-1 -- PSV tie it up -- Vitesse went ahead 3-2 -- Vitesse gave away another penalty, this time with a red card attached -- PSV scored the penalty 3-3. Goalkeeper heroics in the final minutes allowed Vitesse to barely hang on and it ended 3-3. Soo...

Big controversy in the Vitesse - PSV game. Lozano went down for a very questionable penalty; then made the penalty shot to make the score 1-1. Then, Vitesse thought they should have been awarded a penalty, but it was not given. Vitesse players are furious over what they feel is a double standard and...

Was just going to post how much Ziyech's sloppy shots on goal were starting to get really annoying, when he blasts a screamer into the net for our 4th!

Drats! Had to step away and I missed the 3rd goal.

Following the 2nd goal we had two 'can't miss' chances that somehow we didn't convert -- hope it doesn't come back to haunt us. Gotta love the way VdBeek is playing -- maybe Barca is having second thoughts about which midfielder they bought.

Neres combines with Tadic and drives to the endline -- puts in a low cross toward the near post and it goes in off a Willem defender -- so now 1-2 and we are on top again.

Well -- that was short lived. Blind gives away a penalty and it is now 1-1. Does this team want to be champions badly enough -- or is it going to be another of those many years of late where we stumble coming down the stretch.

VdBeek comes through!! 0-1 -- we are in 1st place as of this minute.

Just saw the highlights, as well. I sincerely hope we are not relying on the goalkeeper for a future first team role.

Tom_ schreef:... Feel like there are a lot of bugs to work out with VAR. Not sure it’s worth it.

My opinion is that if there are bugs to work out, then work out the bugs. It's still better than games being won or lost because of missed or mistaken calls by the officials.

Who woulda thunk it! I honestly wrote them off for the game and the season -- but they came through and proved me wrong.

Wow! Tadic puts away the penalty, so hope returns. Now to hang on for 20 mins.

Another season -- same old crap.

I'll be surprised if Maz doesn't get a red card from this.
