Setanta is quickly turning into AjaxTV. This one's on as well, but delayed broadcast at 10pm

I'm pleased I read Ko's post otherwise wouldn't have known this was tonight, not tommorrow (btw - the date's wrong on this thread).

Anway, Tilburg here we come :hupajax.gif:

If anyone here is a member of FBTZ.com, I'd really appreciate it if you could cap tonights game for me. I can't get out of my grandmother's 80th birthday celebration and have to miss the game tonight.

[Venezuelan Ajacied]

Usually an easy game....lets not fuck this one up...please.

7 minutes in, it's 1-1. Kennedy for Ajax, Bobson for Willem II.

[dws]

Willem dominating Ajax at the moment ..... 70% to 30% possession in their favour and threatening to tear our ropey defence to shreds.

[JohnyAjax]

Suarez: 1-2

Suarez: 1-2

Blocked shot from Kennedy and a nice lay off to suarez by Huntelaar

[Van basten]

Goal! Vertonghen! 1-3

[dws]

1:3 ... Vertonghen .... keeper made a mess of his shot from a freekick.

[Van basten]

Shit, Gabri injured. Colin on the field..

[JohnyAjax]

Half time: 1-3
Verthognen scored a free kick with a huge blunder
by willem 2 goalie.
It was an even first hald, even Willem were slightly better.
But it was us who delivered the goods and who had the best chances.

[Van basten]

I thought that Wan der Wiel will be ready for this one, but he isn't even on the bench. Ogararu on the bench. Why? Maduro as center back today?

As you say, we are in front because we have taken our chances.

Willem II dominated for much of the first first 45 mins and may well have been a couple of goals in front by the time Ajax scored their second goal. Ajax failed to compete for 20 minutes after opening the scoring, but from minute 24 on Ajax has played much better.

Just hope Gabri is not badly injured with Psv next week. Also pray Heits and Maduro do not pick up yellows in the second half as I believe that would be their 5th and suspended next week.

Why is Colin on and not Ogararu? Incidently Van DWeil was still not fit for this game.

[dws]

2:3 .... game on.

[Van basten]

its not over yet 2-3..

[dws]

fantastic save from Stek to prevent the 3:3.

[dws]

Final score - 2:3 for Ajax :hupajax.gif:

Thank God we have Stek and not that clown Gomez in goal .

[Van basten]

Glad that it's over. I had a bad feeling about this when it became 2-3. 3 points in the pocket, that's all what's important now

[SPL]

Relief. No yellows for Heits or Maduro so no suspensions.( Urby and KJH booked but ony their 3rd ones)

How is Gabri any reports yet?

[Venezuelan Ajacied]

one off the ugliest wins i have seen in quite some time.....horrible field condition....Dumb third goal.....and an amazing stop in the final seconds by Steks too keep the scoreline in our favor.....I mean what the hell were Colin and Krohn-Deli doing on the field ???? Three points are three points but this game was a weird one for sure....Next up its the Lightbulbs in a top of the table clash.

[Van basten]

I mean what the hell were Colin and Krohn-Deli doing on the field ????

Ogararu is injured so there wasn't any other option really. And actually Colin played not so bad today

[ZoefdeHaas]

W2 obviously capitalised on our shitty defending, we need to invest in one or two good ones this winter, or start using VDHeyden.

Nonetheless, a win is a win, and we should be happy that we're back on top.
