04 Oct 2009: Roda JC - Ajax

[SE6Ajacied]

Another yellow for Enoh!

Anyone got a link for the goals please? So used to not being able to watch that I didn't bother trying till late and it's already 1-1. (I'll try You Tube later but just being lazy in case someones already got a link.)

[Kowalczyk]

It wasn't the goal -- it was the way it was made.

If we win this one (and why not?) it's our 12th game (in all competitions) without a defeat. Four goals conceded in those twelve matches. Sometimes you concede one, you know...

Yeah, true. I'm a bit worried about how arse we're looking in the final third though. Hope it's not one of those 'unable to put the ball in the net' days...

[Kowalczyk]

Right. Half-time. 1-1.

I think we'll win this one, but the latter 20 minutes of the first half were very poor indeed. Hardly any chances, hardly any proper football and (unusual this season) shaky defending.

Come on Ajax, you can do better than this. Show it in the second half.

Let's see if he brings Rommedahl on for the second half -- worked out very well in the previous two games.

[Van basten]

Bring Rommedahl instead of Aissati and place him in the right and move Mickey to the left. Also hope to see Cvitanich instead of Pantelic.

[souras84]

All of Roda are in their half defendind so its gonna be tricky

[souras84]

now we are fucked...

[Van basten]

Nicely played Ajax.

[Orange14]

Bound to happen. Our passes lack conviction and eveyone is a half step too slow. I'm concerned that we are not going to come back from this despite Roda's defense being non-existent.

[Kowalczyk]

Houston, we have a problem.

Stay calm now. And play football.

K.

[Orange14]

Bend it like Beckham.

[souras84]

yes at last it went in, with the only way possible at the moment

[Van basten]

Suarez! What a goal!

[Tom_]

Great strike. Thought it might need a bit of individual magic today. One more!

[SE6Ajacied]

2-2 eh! Must be me as I missed that one as well. My Dutch TV stream died and in the process of moving from NL to the Middle East (arabic commentary I think) we got an equaliser. Can't complain though, come on Ajax

[Kowalczyk]

Now let's win it! We have to win here!

K.

[rjf1]

Now let's win it! We have to win here!

K.

Hate to say it, but the way the defense is running around like 3 blind mice I'm just hoping we don't lose.

[Orange14]

And that was also bound to happen. Urby off on a Red card.

[souras84]

emannuelson did a stupid tackle and got us almost killed with a red card and almost a goal conceded. its gonna be a hell ride till the end

[Kowalczyk]

It was a tackle from behind... But he could have sent two Roda players off for exactly the same thing. Hadouir and another one, the bloke who mowed Pantelic down in the first minute. It's a bit harsh, but then again: ref can give the red card for a tackle from behind - there's not much you can say about that.

K.

[rjf1]

Pantelic off -- didn't impress me today -- Oleguer on to beef up the defense.

[souras84]

its a long time we havent seen him playing... hope he plays as good as he must

[Orange14]

These aimless passes are totally wastefull. Terrible, simply terrible.
