07 MAY 2017 Ajax - Go Ahead Eagles Match Day 33

[Orange14]

As is customary with the Eredivise on the penultimate match day, simultaneous kick-offs for all nine matches. Ajax entertain bottom of the table Go Ahead Eagles who are just about relegated. This looks to be a match that Ajax should have no problems winning and a victory should "almost" lock up 2nd place as Ajax have a GD of eight over PSV. Top of table Feyenoord can clinch the title with a draw away to Excelsior. There was some clamor to move this match to De Kuip as the Excelsior home field only seats about 5,000. Fortunately, that was nixed by the Dutch FA.

Will Bosz finally rotate the squad? Will Tete displace an ineffective Veltman at RB? We will find out on Sunday.

Have they released the new away kits? I just looked at the Ajax webshop and didn't see any. We only have one away league match on the final day against Willem II. Ajax will have to wear away kit against Lyon as their home colors are white with some color on the shirt.

Sinkgraven is the only regular who will be missing for this match as his knee injury has not yet healed. Bosz has indicated that there may be some squad rotation so that some of the regulars are rested for the return tie with Lyon on Thursday. My preferred lineup is as follows:

Onana
Tete, Sanchez, de Ligt, Viergever
van de Beek, el Capitan (he never rests!!), Nouri
Kluivert, Dolberg, Neres

Let Dolberg play one half and then rotate Traore in, Veltman can come in at CB for Sanchez and maybe Cerny for one of the wingers.

That makes too much sense Orange14. Most likely won't happen.

He made 1 change for PSV . Would love to see v d Beek,Nouri and de Jong start.

Changes made Nouri starts

Onana,Veltman,Westermann,Viergever,Riedewald,Klaassen,v d Beek,Nouri,Neres,Dolberg,Kluivert

Why not Veltman CD and Tete RB. Westermann has played zero football since early February. Hope de Jong gets 30 mins .

Sky not showing this game ,just showing Fword as they expect them to win the title today. ( Cannot complain only the 2 nd time Sky have not shown us this season and not showing the game later)

[Orange14]

I can't complain about giving Westermann a match but not starting Tete is just WRONG. I guess this is sealing the deal that Tete leaves in the summer. I really think Overmars should have overruled Bosz on this but what do I know.

I hope the Ukraine/Russia channel that delivers a good stream still carries the Ajax match. They are always on Ace Player.

What a beautiful shot by Kluivert

[Ayman]

Kluivert 1-0

[saddlerian]

No stream today. Only watch, in miniature, on Bet365

[Ayman]

2-0!

[rjf1]

Fantastic combination Neres out dribbles the defender then a perfect lead pass to Dolberg breaking into the box, and Dolberg puts it away.

[SPL]

And lovely finish by the ice kid .Cool shows no emotion just good finisher

[saddlerian]

What's your link Steve???

[saddlerian]

A good first half, everything going well...shows that the up and coming youths are developing well!!

[Tom_]

Neres actually looked useful a few times that half.

No news from Rotterdam. Ajax win looks secure and they're playing it like a friendly so I'm gonna watch the second half tomorrow. Enjoy.

[Orange14]

Lots of poor streams today. I guess the world wants to watch Feyenoord. First half is over, Ajax up 2-0 on a wonder goal from Kluivert from 30 meters out and a nicely taken goal by Dolberg off a pass from Neres. Neres is having the best match so far. Defense is not troubled much. Go Ahead Eagles had a goal called back as the forward who was off sides got a little flick on the ball when it was clearly going in.

[Orange14]

Looks like Excelsior is holding their own against Feyenoord, 0-0. Are we looking at an epic collapse????

[SPL]

Watching on cricfree stream 322 only small screen but clear enough and enjoying the game.2 lovely goals and enjoying Nouri

[Ayman]

Frenkie de Jong on for Davy Klaassen for the second half

[SPL]

de Jong comes on and its 3-0

[Ayman]

And Frenkie de Jong scores!!!!

[Ayman]

This is the first time I felt bad for the opposition team, especially under the current circumstances for Go ahead eagles, since they are over 30 minutes away from relegation
