group standings: team.............points........gd milan.............4..............1 ajax..............3..............1 celta.............2..............0 brugge..........1..............-2 What I believe is a crucial game is less than a day away as of now. Milan will mostly likely win tomorrow and if Ajax do they same they can seperate themselves from the pack. The game is at the ArenA and Ajax will not be back there until their last, and most likely decisive, game against Milan. Ajax has been on very good form as of late, while Celta are fourth from last in Spain with only 6pts in 7 games and a GD of -4. Ajax should win this game.
injuries and guess at lineup Escudé is out of the game and is going to be replaced by the young and talented Belgium, Jalle van Damme. O'Brien is still out and could probably be back within a month i think but imo will probably return after the winter break just to be safe. Litmanen is back, idk what is expected of him as of now tho. Heitinga and Grygera are back, but I dont expect either to start. I am pretty sure of the spots to be filled by the defenders and strikers, although I am unsure of the midfield. My guess at a line-up: Lobont Trabelsi...Pasanen...vDamme...Maxwell Pienaar...Galasek...vdVaart..idk maybe sneijder? Zlatan...Sonck (keep up the good work ,-)) can someone tell me what happened to de jong? i havent heard him mentioned once last year. i assume he is injured cuz he was doing really well last year. also it seems ajax are trying to extend galasek's contract. and some older news trabelsi looks like he will stay.
he's fit - koeman made a comment about feeling bad that he didn't play wes v. volendam, but that he wanted to get heitenga & grygera in the game
game on... Ajax 1 Lobont 2 Trabelsi 3 Pasanen 6 Galásek 8 Pienaar 9 Ibrahimovic 10 Van der Vaart 14 Van Damme 15 Maxwell 18 Sneijder 19 Sonck Bench 31 Boschker 11 Sikora 16 De Jong 20 Litmanen 22 Yakubu 23 Grygera 29 Mitea
Meanwhile in other CL matches: VfB alreay 2-0 up against the Greeks This is for the good of Dutch co-efficients in UEFA ranking...
HT 0-0 for some reason, VDV was pulled for mitea on 39' - hope he's not suffered a bad injury zlatan and wes each just miss scoring in the first half - looks like they may wait to do business in the final 5 minutes again tonight
yeah at the milan score!!! can someone plz tell me what is up with de jong? i see he is a sub so he isnt injured, so WAS he injured? i remember last yr thinking how good he was in his 1st year at ajax 1 and how good he would be and now he doesnt play. if you are going to show a score from another game plz space the post. i dont want to know the manu-gers score or chelsea-lazio cuz i am going to watch them later. update on marsielle: 2-1 porto leading
No sweat man. The AC score was great and the other ones weren't what I was worried about. I have the Real game on the Tivo at home right now and was trying to make sure I didn't get clued in to how that was going. That's why I'm avoiding the UEFA commentary for this match.
i have a request guys. could some1 plz give me a direct link to a ajax pbp like uefa´s IF it does not show other scores in the same window? i am not sure if it does show other scores but my memory tells me it does. does eurosport show other scores in the pbp? and btw F*#*#*# Real Madrid. espn always shows their games even when its against a crap team. man u-gers or chelsea-lazio should be the premier game.
What the? How can it be only 0-0 @ HT vs. Celta? Either they are better than I think or Ajax is not that good? Which is it?
zlatan split two defenders in the area before poking the ball home to the topright corner WHAT A GOAL!!!
Re: What the? celta vigo is better than theyve shown so far this year and i'd bet they are playing behind the ball they did get a draw at ac milan last matchday
Here's what the UEFA commentators think: "( 1 - 0 ) Ibrahimovic (Ajax) scores! A superb piece of individual skill from the Swedish striker results in the opening goal. He controls the ball on the edge of the box and pokes the ball through Argentinian central defensive pair Cáceres and Eduardo Berizzo before collecting it in enough space to stab in his shot into the bottom right corner. " Superb.
