15720 49' Mokio saves Ajax Oops, what a chance again for Groningen! Zawada gets plenty of space on the right and passes to Van Bergen, but Mokio is in between before the striker can tap in his second. 50' 'Ajax is applying for a backlog' The second half is only five minutes underway and, as so often this season, Ajax is keeping an open house in that phase. Groningen has already missed two life-size chances to take a 2-1 lead. They arise from the right side of Ajax, where players are dramatically transferred and Oskar Zawada, substitute and striker at Groningen, enjoys all the time and space but also doesn't know what to do with it. Ajax is applying for a backlog. And they got it served! Full time FC Groningen - Ajax So what is Jordy going to do? He recently played the strong man kicking out the youth coach with the comment "if you lose, there are consequences".
It's incredible that even matches of Sparta are becoming relevant for the question which clubs are in the fight for UEFA club tournements and whether they are a threat to Ajax.
If FC Twente manages to win this, they come level in points with Ajax. The battle for the 2nd and 3d spot is a very close one. The second spot is atm contested by 3 clubs, chasing Feyenoord: Ajax/NEC/FC Twente. But these 3 also have to watch out for Sparta/SC Heerenveen/FC Groningen/FC Utrecht for spot 3 and for the EL/Conference L. spots.
PSV has won 2-1 against AZ in an entertaining duel in Eindhoven. AZ had things in order. A shot by Van Duijl after a long throw-in meant the 0-1 and via Parrott and Koopmeiners it also had chances to make it 0-2. On the stroke of halftime, PSV got help from Owusu-Oduro. The AZ goalkeeper received a seemingly easy to catch header by Sildillia was not under control and hit the ball into the goal via Parrott. After halftime, the game fluctuated up and down. PSV, which saw Dest drop out with a hamstring injury, brought Pepi a number of times and Kasius had a great opportunity on behalf of AZ. Shortly after, Pepi shot on the other hand, he did hit. I was major league pissed by how AZ in a short time after the 1-0 lead, wasted 3 or 4 huge chances to kill PSV and take a leap in the chart towards the 3d spot.
15854 With the loss of Jeremiah St. Juste, Feyenoord is still missing nine players in Breda. In addition to the defender and Smal, Shaqueel van Persie, Givairo Read, Malcolm Jeng, Gernot Trauner, Thomas Beelen, Shiloh 't Zand, Sem Steijn and Leo Sauer are also absent.
15867 Luciano Valente subbed by Oussama Targhalline. Valente made that great goal, but then got a kick from Holtby and can't continue.
52': 3-3 GOAL by Ayase Ueda! We continue where we left off: another goal. Again with the head. 3-3 now. Gsus, goal nr 6 already. Are they in any way defending in Breda?
15867 Feyenoord started excellently, but given the stats of the game, it's very strange that you're 3-2 down at halftime. Feyenoord had the game completely under control, but they have to blame themselves that they are behind. Well, the slow train Sterling has been replaced, let's see how that effects the left wing.
