11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
All to play for this coming Thursday as Ajax journey to the gastronomic capital of France to take on Lyon in the return tie. Ajax carry a 4-1 lead into the match and certainly an away goal would make it very difficult for Lyon. Lyon won their match today defeating Nantes 3-2 at home while Ajax had an easier time of it against the bottom dwelling Go Ahead Eagles. Ajax had the opportunity to rest key players today.
Let's hope for a good performance!!!

We are in for a rough ride. Can we weather the Lyon storm?
Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
cricfree has a few BT3 streams (the channel showing the game in UK).I have watched most of our EL games on this and have got good pictures!
Sadly think Tete will play his last game for us v Willem. I am confident and think we will get an away goal.

On ESPN 3 here in the States
Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
3 left out Nouri, deJong and Alblas.Thus v d Beek is the only spare Mf where as we have 3 spare defenders,ok Riedewald can play DMF but is still a defender.
Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Ajax better not sit back and let Lyon bring the game on to them. Lacazette is healthy and he's really a dangerous scorer. I'm worried about this one.

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
I've really been looking forward to this. I hope we go after a goal. If Lyon scores first it's gonna be a long night.

Great goal by Dolberg ,we could have got more, in complete control and then a very iffy pen and we let a 2nd in .
Lyon a very moderate side not sure how they are 2-1 up.I'm in shock at moment

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Some very poor defending in the final minute has let Lyon back in the tie. Sure, de Light should not have pushed Lacazette over, but Veltman and Klaassen both had chances to make a defensive play and both failed. The English announcers are saying how well Veltman has played but I take the opposite view; I don't think he has done well at all. At least de Ligt did not get a card. Schöne will have to come off at the 60 minute mark as he will be out of gas. Tete should have started but I'm not sure Bosz wants to burn a sub to bring him on right now. Ajax will have to sort things out as this match is not over by a long shot.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is going to be a rocky ride. Ajax need some cool heads out on the pitch.

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Viergever's very poor intent of clearing the ball is eating me up. And then Davinson just looks at the cross. Very very dissapointing stuff. Come on we were doing really good. Neres or Kluviert have to come on to bring something different to our attacking game. Younes lack of ability to use his left foot leaves him with very few options on the left other than to dribble inside.

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Frenkie would have been a good option for this game. His so cool and calculating on the ball. Van de beek has to come on soon I hope, also a calming and creative figure.

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Lyon only really had one chance and got exceptional value (2 goals). Ajax had loads but didn't pul them away. If it continues like this, it would be totally crazy for Ajax to lose...
Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
2nd goal Sanchez not marking their scorer he was completely unmarked.
Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Bosz needs to use some subs here. Schöne and Ziyech are totally out of the game and might as well be wearing Lyon shirts. Traoré seems to be injured and Veltman is in second yellow territory...

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Wow that was a clear second yellow for Veltman. Time for Tete!!!

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Bizarre EL refereeing as usual tonight! This time Veltman gets the benefit. Surely Bosz will take him off...
Anything can happen here, we want another goal!

Re: 11 MAY 2017 Lyon - Ajax Europa League Semifinals
Tete replaces our weakest defender.Was going to say our worse player but Traore is still on the pitch
