Kennedy Suarez Cvitanich Bodul Zeegelaar

Not picked Gabri and Vermeer injured . Sarpong Donald and Martina. Sulejmani . Plus the 3 loaned players.

Sulejmani probably not being picked for these early games as he has only just been on Int duty. Unless he is injured Sarpong must be pissed off !!!

1-0 to Ajax

Could be more than that: Suárez off the crossbar, a couple more nice attacks just in the five or ten minutes I've been watching. They don't seem to have any idea what to do with our Uruguayan.... Also a nice shot of BMJ coaching Lindgren up on the sideline during a break in the action.

[Orange14]

Bad defending by Alderweireld on the first Capetown goal left Stek hung out to dry. Really dumb play by Sno to concede a penalty. this should have been a clean sheet for the team given the otherwise pretty decent play. Only saw the second half and there were some good goal chances. Jol had Anita at left back with Sno, de Jong, and Van der Heijden in mid-field.

[martinkohout]

Yeah, both of those were pretty shoddy. Alderweireld got completely turned inside out after completely whiffing on a headed clearing attempt, and the Sno penalty was really stupid.

I confess I missed a lot of the second half, but in the first half, at least, Ajax looked particularly dangerous attacking up the left side.

Credit to ACT, though - there was no quit in them.

3-2, though it shouldn't have been that close.
