Prior to the home game Against Heracles, Jorrel Hato Said Goodbye to the Johan Cruijff Arena. The Left-Back, Who Moved to Chelsea, Saw Owen Wijndal Playing in His Position, While the Rest of the Defense also consisted of players who are originally backs.
In The Absence of the Injured Ko Itakura and the Not Fully Fit Josip Sutalo, Right-back Lucas Rosa was Centrally Behind Alongside Youri Baas. Anton Gaaei Completed the Defense. Furthermore, Oscar Gloukh was in The Starting Lineup for the first time.
Gloukh, Who Came From Red Bull Salzburg, Brought Creativity to Ajax’s Game, which created QUITE A FEW Chances in the First Half Hour. Kenneth Taylor and Owen Wijndal Couldern’t Get The Ball In, and Weghorst Shot Meters.
In the 31st minute, Ajax Finally Scored. After a good move by Gloukh, The Ball Came to the Feet of Stand-in Captain Berghuis, Who Scored (1-0).
Many Missed Chances also after half time
Ajax gets used to half-time with a deserved 1-0 lead. John Heitinga’s team was Stronger After Half -Time As Well, Although It Wasn’t Really Tested by the Still Pointless Heracles. The problem with Ajax was just that the finishing was Lacking.
Weghorst, in particular, Could Have Scored Earlier in the Match, but his shot was blocked. Berghuis’s Attempt a Little Later was Better, but Heracles goalkeeper Fabian de Keijzer had Answer. Fitz-Jim also Wasted a Decent Shooting Opportunity.
In The Final Phase, Substitute Klaassen should have made it 2-0, but he did’s get his foot to a cross. Another Substitute, Oliver Edvardsen, Shot Wide. So it looked like it would remain 1-0, Until Weghorst Finally Finished Convincingly in the 87th Minute. The Striker Shot The Ball Hard and High Into The Net, Bringing the Final Score to 2-0.
