http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AFC-Ajax-c38228 Amsterdam’s Frank de Boer delighted with a 4-1 win over SBV Excelsior – Eredivisie news
Ajax Amsterdam thrashed SBV Excelsior 4-1 to clinch a win at the Amsterdam Arena on Sunday, April 24. Frank de Boer, De Joden manager, was pleased to see his side bag three crucial points in the race for the Dutch Eredivisie title.
The Amsterdammers’ convincing win over the relegation contenders moves them to second place in the league table, a solitary point behind the league leaders http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Christian-Eriksen-c9074 and Siem
de Jong saw the Eredivisie giants secure all three points easily.
In the post-match press conference, Boer said, “It was certainly no cinch. The results suggest that it was easy, but it was certainly not. Excelsior put constant pressure and we coped with it effectively.”
“We are now in control. We can only blame ourselves if we failed to lift the trophy at the end”, he concluded.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 losing three crucial points in the Eredivisie title hunt, Boer has every right to believe in his troops’ chances
of lifting the Eredivisie title at the end of this season.
Boer’s men started the match with aggressive intent and were rewarded in the 13th minute when Ebecilio’s strike found the bottom right corner of the net. The home side could have doubled their lead after 30 minutes of play, but http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mounir-El-Hamdaoui-c26905
was unable to control his header that flew over the bar.
The visitors started the second-half impressively and found the equalizer in the 55th minute, when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daan-Bovenberg-c9693 headed in a perfect header from a Ryan Koolwijk free-kick. However, the home side replied strongly to re-take their lead with Eriksen
putting his name on the score-sheet in the 72nd minute of the match. Six minutes later, Ebecilio applied finishing touches to Miralem Sulejmani’s brilliant cross from the right wing. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Siem-de-Jong-c33482 scored in the injury time to seal the scoring.
The Amsterdammers will play http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Willem-II-c40945 Tilburg on Sunday, May 1. Both the sides would be the favourites to win their respective matches against struggling opponents. If both the teams secure three points in
their upcoming encounters, than the Eredivisie Champion would be decided on the final day of the season, when De Joden will face the Tukkers at the Amsterdam Arena on Sunday, May 15. Needless to say, a thrilling finale awaits the Eredivisie faithful.
