AJAX are looking for ways to come out of the hole they've essentially dug themselves. It seems a lifetime ago but just over two years ago in February 2022, Ajax was on the peak of its powers...

Possession at least 2/3, no shots on target by the opponent, a passing rate over 90% and better than the opponent, plus at least 3-0 score or two per half (4-0) - that would be the ideal game for me. And after that challenge has been met, the thrill goes into repeating at as many times as possible against increasingly tougher opponents. In a Cruijffean Style (read: classic Total Football, something between modern Wing Play, Gegenpressing and Tiki Taka)
Closest I came to it, at exactly the right moment. Normally, in this game it's hard to be accurate with tackling and goal attempts.
But this time @JustinCase0110 - 28 shots, 20 on target, 10 in. Good possession en passing rates, however: not in the 4-3-3 home style. Also, whether we win the title or not: the European campaign was a disaster. So, there's plenty to improve still, in a 2nd season. But the first trophy for Ajax in 3 years is a fact (2022 title, was the last; last cup dates from 2021).
During the cup final we play possibly the best game ever, winning 10-0;
three days later, we give away a 2-0 lead to draw and potentially ruin our chances for the title...
Bummer... If PSV wins the game they have in hand, they will stand with a 5 points lead with 3 games left to play. That will almost be game over. Unless... Do I remember correctly that you have PSV in match 33? If that is the case, then you "just" need to win your final three games, whilst PSV need to lose points in just one of the other three games they have left. If you win this title, coming from behind, that will surely be a memorable achievement...
Yes, but about that game in hand...
And also round 32, we were on par...
Alas, not this year... 😞 Round 33 was also decisive for all places regarding European football (as well as relegation).
