13 Feb 2011: Roda JC - Ajax

[Kowalczyk]

Right - all of a sudden we're totally back in the race!

1. PSV: 22-47 (58-21)
2.Twente: 22-47 (45-24)
3. Ajax: 22-44 (44-20)

Twelve more games to play; only three point behind the two leaders.

Matchday 23: Twente vs Vitesse and AZ vs PSV on Saturday evening (I expect Twente to win that, easily, but PSV...?), followed by Roda vs Ajax on Sunday (kick-off time 14:30 CET). A tough road game. Let's take this one extremely seriously.

They are the only team in the league not to have lost at home this season!! Let's hope we can end this streak.

A win here and we go to 2nd place....then it'll be decided on the 27th......and a draw there will make the closing few weeks VERY interesting!!!!

let's win today first....2-1 seems to be good!!!

[Orange14]

A win here and we go to 2nd place....

No, we still stay 3rd; three points away from the co-leaders.

Whoa Rojadirecta.org is gone! Anyone know where else to find streams?

Edit: Here we go

rojadirecta is now at rojadirecta.me -- thank the US govt. for getting in bed with the broadcasters for forcing that move.

[Orange14]

Alright!!!!!!!!!! 0-1 great link up play. Let's keep rolling.

[rjf1]

Out of a ho-hum back and forth -- all of a sudden a breakout -- Sulejmani hits it!! 1-0

[Tom_]

Another nice lobbed finish from Sulejmani...

[Orange14]

When will our players realize this is not the English League and ticky tack fouls will be called!! We cannot afford to concede free kicks.

Thanks a lot. Sopcast is working like a charm.

[Tom_]

Was that saved off the keeper's knee? We seem to be getting in decent positions, they're defending quite high up. Be nice to put another away

[Amol]

Great skip past by Blind, great cross, bad miss from De Jong.

[saddlerian]

de Jong....2-0.....is it game over? I should think so!!!!

[Orange14]

Siem de Jong gets number 2!

[Amol]

0-2!!! Lucky deflection from the Roda defender and good header from De Jong.

[Tom_]

2-0! de Jong heads in Sulejmani's deflected shot

[saddlerian]

Oh dear.....1-2.....Come on lads...we NEED this one!!!!

[Amol]

How stupid. We let them back in 5 minutes later.

[Orange14]

Terrible clearance from Stekelenberg. Match is back on. 1-2

[Tom_]

Looks like there are more goals in this one, doesn't it

[Amol]

Looks like there are more goals in this one, doesn't it

That's for sure...lol. Well at least we made it to HT without conceding a second one.

[saddlerian]

Half Time.....1-2. A good first half....just got to maintain concentration and get these 3 points.

Come on Frank....Half Time chat must be positive...the lads are doing well!!!

[Orange14]

de Boer didn't look very happy at the end of the half and with good reason. We were controlling play and then bang, let them right back into the match! We need to quit making such bonehead passes and work towards quick passes rather than the one killer pass that is never going to come. This match should have been in control and now we are back on the knife edge.

[rjf1]

Somebody should by the boys a compass and a flashlight -- maybe then they can find the goal.
