It was the German’s debut and it ended with victory against the Zwolle (0-2) at home. He PSV They are the rival to beat since they are defending their title, but they started 26-27 with a puncture against Sittard.

Ajax had absolute control of the ball for almost the entire match and the hosts tried to do damage on the counterattack. This type of match made Ter Stegen He would play very forward and practically position himself as a libero. Although he didn’t have much work between the posts, he took a good header that could have changed the film, he was quite confident in all his actions and with the ball at his feet he showed that he is one of the best in the world.

Despite monopolizing the ball, Míchel’s team lacked some magic in the final meters, something that already happened last year at Ajax. The substitution of Godtswho warmed up as a starter but finally asked not to start due to some discomfort, could alter the entire plan. The Belgian, who is negotiating to join PSG, entered the final stretch and helped close the game on a wall with Brandt.

The two goals came in the last quarter of an hour and they proved the Spanish coach right in the changes since two players who came on from the bench scored. Everything was conditioned in the 57th minute by a direct red card for an ugly tackle by Floranus.


Almost immediately in the 61st minute, Godts, Brandt and Mokio entered. The latter broke the tie by taking advantage of a back pass from Arokodare – also a substitute – who finely adjusted near a post, making the goalkeeper’s stretch useless. In the 90+5′ Brandt sentenced after a one-two with Godts.
