19 MAR 2015 Ajax-Dnipro Europa League

[SPL]

its going to be a struggle to win this plenty of possession though but can see Dnipro scoring on the counter.

Found a very good clear picture on livetv but no commentary just the noise from the stadium.One or 2 english streams ie ESPN but pictures were not good so may as well stick to the good picture ,I can see all our players clearly .

[Orange14]

Bazoer had a pretty bad match until NOW!!!!

[SPL]

lovely goal by Bazoer,now lets get that 2nd

[Amol]

GOOOOAAAAALLLL!!!! GOLAZO!!!

Two big slices of luck on that play... Sinkgraven's pass to no-one fell for Bazoer and the Dnipro defender somehow missed his clearance, but Bazoer did the right thing and blasted it in! Could be just what we need as surely Dnipro will go for the away goal now.

[Orange14]

Dnipro players go over easier than Serero. Worst of Italian football is on display.

[Amol]

Has Boilessen made a single successful pass today? Don't count back passes to other defenders.

I find those early crosses he makes from near the halfway line particularly frustrating

[Orange14]

Siggie for KIshna? I hope FdB knows what he's doing.

[Tom_]

Siggy!

OK, Kishna struggled today, but what's the plan here, Milik at LW? Is de Boer channelling Ajax-era Koeman?

[Amol]

Viergever trying the Cryuff move while defending and then falling all over himself. HAHAHA.

Bazoer and Sinkgraven both look exhausted

Worst player on the pitch for Ajax. Horrible game.

[Orange14]

Well this sucks. I don't like to see us go to extra time but that's what will happen. Sinkgraven was the best player for Ajax. Both of our fullbacks were horrible during regular time. el Ghazi had some moments and Bazoer got a little lucky on the goal. Cillessen made some really nice saves.

[SPL]

oh dear extra time ,if it gets to pens we are out .Agree Boilesen is poor ,Riedewald would be better.

[SPL]

maybe that big carthorse from Iceland will score and be our hero.

[Orange14]

Didn't close him down and that should be that.

[SPL]

well thats that then at least we are not going to lose on pens.

[Tom_]

They finally got us on one of those counters. We were looking like we'd run out of gas at about the 70 minute mark so there's no way we're coming back from here.

[Orange14]

I guess Bazoer just didn't have the energy to close him off on the goal. Can't fault Cillessen on it.

And who lost possession in midfield to start the attack from which they scored?
The same guy who got sarcastically cheered when he got substituted......

[Amol]

IMO the 2 changes (Siggie and Serrero) killed off whatever creativity we had in the game.

+1 million

[Tom_]

I don't know, I think Kishna and Sinkgraven both needed to be replaced. The only other option would've been Schöne for Kishna I guess but neither Schöne or el Ghazi are that great at LW.

Oh, a goal from nowhere! I don't think we had a shot since they scored... make a fun last two minutes at least

[Amol]

WTF just happened!?!? This is so unexpected!!
