Ajax ‘Spurs’ed up

Ajax taking on the spurs was just as exciting as Liverpool taking on barcelona. What was supposed to be a confirmed berth for Ajax in the finals was cancelled. All thanks to the spurs and especially the man himself, Lucas Moura who bagged a hattrick.

Ajax gained possession right from the very start and were all over the LilyWhites. De Ligt gave Ajax lead at their own turf, converting a corner into a goal. The youngster scored a goal in the similar manner which knocked out Juventus. Ziyech’s goal made the spurs weak on their knees. Not only was Ajax throttling the visitors by attack but also was great in defensive duties. Ajax was on verge of knocking Spurs out of UCL at the end of first half.

Pochettino’s men didn’t give up and came back strong with high pressing football and they were rewarded with Moura’s first goal. The hosts defence came crumbling down and they started to get vulnerable. Despite Onana’s amazing saves on numerous accounts the visitors managed to find an equaliser. The Dutch side was in a immense pressure and tried regaining their feet. Ziyech’s great effort only landed him a bounce of the woodwork. Just when things looked in Ajax’s favour, Moura, the magic man, Spurs hero came to the rescue. Spurs ace scored a winning goal by completing a memorable hattrick. Brazilian put an amazing show which ended the heroics of young Ajax side.
Tottenham Hotspurs are all set to face their Premier league rivals Liverpool in the finals in Madrid.
