29 Sep 2012: Ajax - FC Twente

[Kowalczyk]

Ajax were not-so-great (too slow in the first half, particularly), but Twente were shockingly negative and deserved to lose.

Twente had no offensive intentions whatsoever. And when Ajax's goal forced them to come out of their trenches they simply had no idea what to do. No creativity, no better ideas than simply rocketing the ball forward and see what happens.

Don't get me wrong: Ajax could have conceded a goal, which in this case means that they could have lost the game, too.

But from a 'moral justice point of view' Twente didn't deserve jack from this game. I mean, come on... They had a 100% score from the first six games, they're top of the league, but they dug in like a relegation candidate... Shame on them. They're better than that.
